「Woah, how brave of Mona-sama to come into a place like this」

When I entered one of the rooms in the demon king castle of Nargol, the elderly person who’s the owner of the room came to greet me.

That old one then bows respectfully toward me. This person’s appearance is similar to a normal human but with a pair of horns growing on this person’s head just like Runfeld.

His name is Rugaas. He was once one of the gods who governed over knowledge in Elios, just like my beloved Modes. When my husband was exiled from Elios, Rugaas followed along with him, since he’s my husband’s subordinate.

And now this person is the prime minister of Nargol.

Rugaas’s strong point isn’t his power, thus he couldn’t participate in the fight against the hero.

「Raise your head, Rugaas」

When I say so, Rugaas raised his head and then he guided me to the chair at the center of the room.

「May I ask what kind of business you have today, Mona-sama？」

Rugaas’s asking me.

「Rugaas. Kuro-…………. No, what do you think about lord Diehart？ 」

「Lord Diehart？」

The duel that happened the other day. Everyone in the castle witnessed that duel. Naturally, Rugaas had also witnessed it.

「I think he’s an extremely powerful person since he managed to defeated that hero. It’s reassuring that such a person is our ally」

Lord Diehart is strong, no doubt about it. He defeated that terrifying hero by himself.

But, that is also the reason why I must consider that factor.

「Only that？」

Rugaas is tilting his head in confusion.

「Anymore to say about him？」

「The old and wise Rugaas. The hero is a man who came from the spirit world due to the prediction of that goddess called Casa. And then, lord Diehart also came from the spirit world」

「！ ！ 」

Rugaas exhibited a surprised expression.

「Don’t tell me… Mona-sama is」

「Yes, it seems there’s a possibility that Diehart-sama is a hero. We must dispose him if he’s a danger threatening Modes-sama」

Lord Diehart has no loyalty. There’s a possibility that he’ll betray Modes.

「But, Mona-sama. Because of the invasion of the hero, the demon king army is in a devastated state. Going against lord Diehart in this situation is too unreasonable」

Rugaas’s argument is based on the fact that it was easy to rebuild the goblin race’s troops and undead races which are easy to reproduce, but it’ll take a bit longer for the other races to rebuild their troops.

Especially the demon race and troll race, these two strongest races are in devastating situation.

In fact, the troll race received almost no damage in the fight against the hero. The king of trolls quickly surrendered after seeing the fact that he was no match for the hero.

In addition, this king of troll went as far as betraying the Nargol and even guided the hero. But then, it seems something happened on the way, making him unable to guide the hero till the end and leaving them alone.
