"Mizuki! Daphne! Katherine, Zoe! Are you okay?"
When Varzad and the others were gone, Sam first ran to his wife and his companions.
Fortunately, they were crushed by the pressure, but did not seem to have suffered any serious injuries.
"...... Ha-ha-ha, that was awesome. It was a good reminder that there is always someone better than you."
Mizuki stood up with Sam's help and tried to smile, but failed.
No wonder.
The magic power unleashed by the young man who claimed to be the true Demon King was tremendous.
It was enough to break even the most confident person's heart.
"Mizuki, you were right, they were really scary.
Catherine felt the same way as Mizuki.
She wiped her sweaty forehead with a handkerchief, but still seemed mentally relaxed.
"...... I never thought anyone could be that powerful. I think it's safe to say that Varzad and the other three are equal in power. Frankly, I'm horrified."
"It's rare to hear Zoey sound weak. ...... No, I was stuck too, so it's not like I'm a person. But I didn't expect Botchan to be so calm under such pressure."
Zoe and Daphne seemed to have no problem either, judging from the way they brushed off the dust.
"No, they weren't fine, though."
"...... I guess I was wrong about Sam. You were the only one standing in that situation. That's all that matters."
"I think it's just a coincidence."
No! That's not true, in fact, your magic is--"
"Zoe, let's wait until things settle down."
"...... I guess so. I'll do that."
Zoe wanted to say something, but Daphne interrupted her.
But she didn't want to say anything else.
"So, Sam. What are you going to do now?"
"The fight is over, that's all that matters."
"Then you may declare it."
Me?
You.
"Well, that's all right."
At Zoe's urging, Sam took a deep breath and released his voice.
"Well, for now - the fight is over! If you still want to do it, step forward! I'll cut you open myself!"
Not a single person objected to Sam's declaration.
Sam was the only one who stood against Varzad and the others who claimed to be the true Demon King, and no demon tribe thought to stand against him after seeing him slay a horde of deformed creatures with a single blow.
"Alright. Well, let's deal with Bowood for now."
"......What do you mean, somehow?"
"We're going to heal him."
"Oh, come on, you're not going to help me?"
Zoe says she can't believe it, and Sam nods.
Bowood and the others call themselves the new Demon Lords, but that's all they've done yet.
They have not harmed any of the Demon Lords' men, nor have they mistreated the demon tribe.
It is a shameful thing to say, but they had done nothing yet, even though they had been inspired by Valzard to take up arms.
"I know it sounds naive, but since they were using us, there should be some leniency. Besides, we need to get information out of them."
"......Whether I was used or not, even if I did nothing, I would still be sentenced to death when I stood up to the Demon Lord, but, well, if you say so,...... mmm, I still disapprove."
It's not that I don't understand Zoey's feelings.
The fact that no harm was done is a consequence, not a possibility.
If Sam and the others had come a day later, it could have ended differently.
"Then why don't you leave the rest of the story to me?"
As Zoe and the others puffed their cheeks out in disapproval, the voice of someone who should not be here reached them.
Zoe is the first one to recognize the voice and breaks her knees.
"-Vivienne!"
The Demon King Vivienne Claxtons had been transported to this place.
