The Demon Prince goes to the Academy Chapter 649

Chapter 649

Allied forces will be stationed for about three days to regroup.

A few days of cleaning up after the battle.

Royal Class Garrison, Cliffman’s Barracks.

“Why are you busy now that the battle is over?”

Erhi brought a piece of bread from somewhere late at night and muttered as he lay down on the rug.

“Are there many injured?”

At Lint’s question, Erhi looked in that direction.

“When will there not be many?”

Erhi, who can use divine magic, was busy treating people without blinking his eyes.

There were four people in the barracks: Erhi and Cliffman, Kaier and Lindt.

As always, Cliffman was lying on his cot, staring blankly at the tent.

If Heinrich was added to this, they were almost always gathered like this.

Of course, Cliffman never once suggested using his barracks as something like a hideout.

From some point on, Kono Lint often came to Cliffman’s barracks, Kaier and Erhi, who had come looking for Lint, clung to each other, and Heinrich looked for where the children were and sat down.

Cliffman always had nothing to say about it.

“Heinrich?”

Kaier tilted his head at Lint’s question.

“He moves with his sister. Since you are royalty, there must be a lot to do.”

At Kaier’s words, Erhi stared at him while lying on his back.

“… … Even so, because Heinrich went with Temple. Heinrich’s older sister is Commander of Kernstadt and the next king. Can I call her sister this way?”

“… … is it?”

Kaier as well as Erhi tilted their heads at the sudden question.

“Is this blasphemy?”

Is it okay to call the brothers of the royal family comfortably just because commoners and royalty ate friends?

Everyone started thinking about something out of the blue.

After thinking about it, I came to the conclusion that I would ask Heinrich when he returned.

“Now there is only one left.”

Rumor has it that all other areas have been pacified.

That’s why everyone knows that Diane, the capital of Lieseln, is the final destination.

Lint’s words made everyone look solemn.

“I’m going to visit the people who have sent letters to me once the war is over.”

At Lint’s words, Erhi’s expression became trembling.

“… … Do you remember all of them?”

“Because I put it together. Can you find someone with an address?”

“Why are you even going to find it yourself?”

“no… … . I wonder if you’re doing well… … . Even if it’s okay… … .”

Lint evaded his words, and when Erhi said as if asking why he was working so hard, Kaier clicked his tongue.

“You bastard, it’s not like that, it’s not like he’s trying to find a pretty girl.”

“ah… … .”

“Oh no! I am! that! pure! With intent!”

It’s rather hard not to know Kono Lint’s obvious intentions.

Of course, I don’t know how he actually feels, but Kono Lint starts laughing.

“If there is such a thing… … . And there are kids I want to see… … .”

-F*ck!

“Yuk!”

And before he could even finish his words, Kono Lint was hit by a slash on the back of the head so intense that his eyes popped out, and he rolled on the floor.

It was only Cliff who suddenly stabbed Lindt in the back.

“Why are you hitting me all of a sudden!”

Kono Lint shouted because he was hit in the back of the head out of nowhere.

“Shut up, because the guy who says that is sure to die.”

“Huh? What kind of superstition is that?”

“Anyway, when it’s over, let’s talk later.”

The moment when everyone was dumbfounded watching Cliff, who suddenly looked serious.

– flutter

“Oh, everyone is there.”

Heinrich entered Cliffman’s tent.

Kono Lint stroked the back of his head and looked at Heinrich blankly.

“Have you seen all your business?”

“Uh, roughly.”

Heinrich sat down on one of the chairs inside the barracks.

Now that Heinrich had appeared, the story we were sharing earlier had no choice but to become a hot topic.

In the end, it’s just pointless talk.

You and I are friends, but that doesn’t mean we’re friends with your family, so should I think of Louise as my friend’s older sister or should I respect her? And if you call Heinrich comfortably in front of Louise, she’ll be offended by Louise, and so on.

Upon hearing that question, Heinrich narrowed his brows.

“… … Why the hell are you curious about that?”

“just.”

“Uh, just.”

Literally, without any grandiose reason or purpose, just asking out of curiosity.

What is the point of sharing a story with friends? Most of the stories are shared for no particular reason as they come to mind.

“Come to think of it, everyone except Erhi… … . She was of commoner origin.”

Except for Heinrich and Erhi de Lafaeri, all of them were from commoners.

“Did you know that now?”

“I don’t know anymore, it’s just new.”

Heinrich had almost forgotten where he was from, so the very thought of such a thing was new to him.

“I think my sister will be okay no matter how you guys treat me… … . So does your sister… … .”

Heinrich thought that Louise would not care too much about that either.

He still didn’t know his mother well, but Heinrich didn’t seem to be strict with Louise’s status.

“Well, after the war, come visit Kernstadt. I won’t be able to afford it, but I won’t be able to treat you.”

Heinrich’s words.

“… … .”

“… … .”

“… … .”

Everyone was silent at those words and only looked at Cliff.

It just happened that Kono Lint was shot in the back while talking about the end of the war.

“… … So what.”

That’s what Cliffman said.

“The back of my head was beaten so badly, why are you leaving him alone!”

Of course, Lint, who had been stabbed in the back of the head for saying a word incorrectly, had no choice but to give up.

“This bastard! The royal family doesn’t say anything, but what if you can’t hit them for being royalty? uh?”

“Noisy. I didn’t hit you because I was far away.”

In fact, Kono Lint was sitting next to Cliffman’s cot, and Heinrich was a bit far from striking him in the back of the head.

“… … What are you guys talking about?”

Naturally, Heinrich couldn’t understand the situation because he didn’t know what topic he was talking about.

“No, before the war is over, the guy who talks about what to do after the war is sure to die!”

“… … ah. Was that what you were talking about?”

You never know if a superstition is true or not.

“It’s not a good attitude to talk about what’s next before it’s over. There’s nothing good about relaxing.”

Heinrich nodded as if he understood what Cliffman was talking about.

The moment you relax because the end is near, you may lose your life with the end of everything in front of you.

And Diane is the final destination and at the same time the most dangerous place.

An incomparable number of people will die.

So it’s funny to discuss what’s next before it’s all over. And Heinrich, who seemed to be pondering for a while, cautiously added an afterword.

“And, even if the gate incident is over, it won’t be the end of everything… … .”

At Heinrich’s words, Erhi looked at Heinrich.

“What are you talking about? Doesn’t everything end just because the gate crisis is over?”

“… … .”

At that question, Heinrich was silent.

For quite a long time.

When Heinrich suddenly became silent for a long time, everyone had no choice but to look at Heinrich.

It was clear that he was choosing his words, not that he had nothing to say.

“Now, there’s something you guys need to know.”

It was a sign that we were going to talk about something very important, not just small talk or conversation between friends.

Heinrich is the only member of the royal family who remains in power in this position.

That’s why Heinrich is the only person in this position who can access information from the high-ranking allied forces, even if he is a friend.

Heinrich looks around.

“Lint, send us far away from the Allied Garrison.”

“… … suddenly?”

“I’ll tell you later, don’t ask anything for now.”

Everyone had never seen Heinrich’s serious expression like that.

* * *

Because of Heinrich’s sudden change of mood, everyone sensed that it was not a joke situation.

As Kono Lint’s Heinrich said, they were brought one by one to a place very far from the Allied garrison.

A place where the light of the garrison can be seen in the distance.

Of course, I couldn’t help but guess that it was a story that others shouldn’t hear.

Nothing illuminates the surroundings except the dim moonlight.

“Hey, why are you so scared?”

Kaier also asked with a firm expression because of the changed atmosphere.

Everyone pays attention to Heinrich.

“Like I said, once the gate crisis is over, it’s not all over.”

Everyone is looking at it.

When the gate crisis is over, people will finally be freed from fear of monsters.

that’s not it

“Obviously, just because the Gate crisis is over doesn’t mean it will all end. Because I have to deal with all the remaining monsters on the continent. It’s also something you don’t know how long it will take.”

Those were Lint’s words, and they were obviously true.

“Yeah, that’s right. But now I’m talking about something else.”

While Heinrich was contemplating how to make a fortune.

“Are you talking about the demon king?”

Cliff, who had been silent, cautiously opened his mouth.

Not only was everyone else silent, but Heinrich looked at Cliff with his eyes wide open.

“Because that’s all there is to say.”

Cliffman had some idea of ​​what topic would come up.

“… … .”

And, the expression of Kono Lint, who had deliberately pretended not to know, had no choice but to harden.

The topic of the demon king had to be dealt with someday, and the demon king’s work had no choice but to come to the surface someday.

The gate situation is over, and if it is not for the remaining monsters, it is a clear reality that we have to think about the work of the devil after all.

“that’s right.”

Heinrich opens his mouth after silence.

“Right now, more than half of the allied forces have sworn allegiance to the Demon King.”

“… … what?”

“what?”

However, everyone couldn’t help but forget about Heinrich’s shocking words.

“Your sister also decided to follow the Demon King.”

In the more shocking words that followed, everyone couldn’t help but want to deny reality.

* * *

There would be no one who could not help but be surprised by the story that many of the leaders of the Allied Forces had already sided with the Demon King.

Even within the allied forces, even if the temples, especially the royal class personnel, are receiving special treatment, it is difficult to obtain information from the headquarters unless it is a special case like Heinrich or Ellen.

However, there are some things you need to understand in order to understand that the Allied Forces have decided to side with the Demon King.

Mass riots and massacres in the ecliptic.

army of the dead. Immortal.

The position of the empire in danger.

And the movements of the Knights Templar and the Five Great Religions.

Heinrich went back to the ecliptic and explained the things he had seen and heard, the things he learned at the end of being involved in a certain incident, and the flow so far.

“The army… … . They’re undead made from the dead… … ?”

Kaier muttered blankly.

“In addition to the dead, even the dead heroes of the past.”

People who existed only in history were resurrected as undead and fighting together.

All of them could not keep their mouths shut when they learned that the unidentified allied forces were a more terrifying and tremendous army than they thought.

And, Kono Lint’s reaction was bound to be a little different.

Even if he didn’t know the specifics, Kono Lint knew that what the Empire was planning was related to reviving the dead heroes of the past as undead.

So, I guessed to some extent about the identity of the immortal. I just couldn’t tell anyone about it.

One new thing I learned.

Christina, Louis Ankton, and Christina are deeply involved in forming the Immortals.

It was not a deep level, but that it was actually a key person.

“I asked what you were doing… … .”

Even though it was class B, they were classmates.

I thought he wasn’t doing anything special on the battlefield, but he was doing the most important thing while hiding it from everyone.

“So, did Kernstadt decide to side with the Demon King because the Empire might collapse after the Gate incident?”

At Cliffman’s words, Heinrich is silent for a moment.

“Yeah, whatever the reason, you’re right. Right now, the Allied Forces are contemplating whether they can survive by sticking to the Empire or by sticking to the Demon King’s side. And my sister has already chosen.”

It’s not about right or wrong, it’s about survival.

After the Gate Crisis is over, you must decide whether you are the Demon King or the Empire.

Such a choice may have to be made by the head of a certain group, and beyond that, now it has no choice but to come down to individual choices.

Erhi muttered blankly.

“The horse… … . It makes no sense… … . A demon king trying to rule the world? Will that work?”

There was astonishment and fear in Erhi’s words, as if people couldn’t let it go that way.

“I’m already half way through it, regardless of whether or not it is. People just don’t know.”

“The leaders may be able to decide that, but I think whether others can accept it is another matter.”

At Cliffman’s words, Heinrich nodded.

“That would be the problem then. Anyway, what I’m saying is, now is the time to make a choice.”

Is it the devil or the empire?

You have to choose.

Now that the gate crisis is over, you need to know that the next problem exists, and you have to think about it.

“Nonsense.”

And, Kaier Bioden, who had been silent, quietly opened his mouth.

“Who caused all of this to happen, and a guy I didn’t know where or what he was doing until now is trying to devour humanity, and is actually doing that? It can’t be.”

In front of Kaier’s restrained anger, Heinrich is silent.

“Creating such an army could be a problem. must be wrong Obviously that would be a sin. But none of this would have happened if it hadn’t been for the Gate incident. But can you follow such a bastard to live? So far, I’ve only been looking at it, but I’m taking everything? that kind of thing… … . That’s nonsense. can’t be… … .”

“I didn’t do anything.”

It wasn’t Heinrich who pushed through Kaier’s words.

The only two people who met the Demon King directly after the gate incident were here.

Heinrich von Schwarz.

Also, there was Kono Lint.

“I’m actually… … . I met Reinhardt last time.”

Heinrich, who surprised everyone, couldn’t help but be surprised this time.

* * *

Just as there were things Heinrich was hiding, there were things Kono Lint was hiding from everyone.

Immortals were deployed on the front lines only recently, and even before that, suspicious incidents continued on the march.

Or a city destroyed by a preemptive strike.

Kono Lint was suspicious of the incident and went out to reconnaissance, where he saw unknown people fighting far ahead of the allied forces.

And I knew that it was the Demon King’s army.

After that, she was kidnapped by Reinhardt’s men and woke up in Reinhardt’s castle.

After that, I talked to Reinhardt for a while.

There was no detailed explanation, but it was said that he had moved because he wanted to prevent the gate incident.

Now that everything has gone wrong, they are doing their best to end the gate crisis.

it can’t be a lie It was because Lint really saw with his own eyes the Demon King’s army fighting ahead of the allied forces with his own army.

“Then everything that happened last year… … . Are you saying that the demon king did it?”

“that’s right. Maybe now… … . It doesn’t seem to be moving because of the immortals.”

Kaier, who was enraged, couldn’t help but lose his temper when he heard Lint’s explanation.

“It is true that the Gate incident happened because of Reinhardt. But, I never wanted that. That’s clear.”

It wasn’t just watching without doing anything.

He was always doing something where people couldn’t see him.

“But at that time, if other people know the truth about you, it will become a problem because they know it, so it’s better to leave it as it is…” … . Please keep this a secret. I said so.”

Obviously, I’ve said that truths like those that would destroy and divide people are best left undisclosed.

So Kono Lint was silent.

“But now things have changed. It wouldn’t matter as long as the empire was alive, but shaking hands right before the empire collapsed, and the situation was getting worse… … . I have no choice but to step out.”

“I guess so.”

It was the first time Heinrich had heard such a detailed story behind the scenes, so he agreed with Cliffman’s guess.

“Anyway, you got me here safely. We met again after that, but… … .”

“Once more?”

“Uh, uh… … .”

Kono Lint’s face couldn’t help but redden.

After that, Lindt met Reinhardt again.

It was to ask for help with a problem related to undead, but there was one reason why his face became red.

“In the world of beauty… … . Because of… … .”

It’s a problem because I didn’t see it because the demon king asked to see it, but I got caught by Sarkegar who transformed into a beautiful girl.
