Vol. 1 - Chapter 3,Part 1: The Threat Of The Demon Lord's Chief Advisor (1)

Two small dragons were pulling a cart along the road to Atlasia, where human bones once rolled. From the back of the dragon carriage, a roof covered it, and the interior was surprisingly spacious. In the leather chair was Serphiano, the Counselor of the Demon Lord's army. A little further away sat Grant, the ogre accompanying her.

Serphiano had long, flowing silver hair and wore an unmistakably demonic silvery-white dress, giving her the appearance of a goddess to strangers that lay eyes on her.

Between the eyebrows of her seemingly beautiful and demure face, however, shone a reptilian third eye that glinted with suspiciously gleaming light.

"Grant, let us hurry up on our journey. Make the dragon chariot go faster."

"Ugha..."

Grant, an ogre with bright red skin, muscular and strong, stood up, went to the driver's dais, and gave the dragons a whip. The dragons roared in response, and the speed of the carriage increased.

Serphiano closed her eyes except for the one on her forehead. In her mind's eye, she saw exactly the Syness Castle, which she was now heading for in her dragon chariot. It was overflowing with an abominable peach-colored disturbance. She bit her lip as her third eye caught the waves of love, which was considered foul by demons.

(He is already using his charm-technique. The Thunder-Lance Charge should already be seen as under the control of the enemy.)

Serphiano, the Chief Advisor of the Demon King's army, had already detected an anomaly in the Land of Leirune with her third eye, the awe-inspiring ability aptly named "Clairvoyant Sight".

It felt similar to the sorcery of the sorcerer in Krevalun before. However, this powerful wave... The range and power were even greater than at that time. But...

(Don't you dare underestimate this Serphiano, the Chief Strategist of the Demon King's army!)

Serphiano, who had absolute confidence in her ability, Clairvoyant Sight, and her own wits, gloatingly grinned inside the shaking dragon chariot.

......

"...Dame Serphiano. Thank you for coming."

Nephira, the commander of the Thunder-Lance Charge, welcomed Serphiano as she stepped out from her dragon chariot. Led by Nephira, she headed for the castle with Grant.

She and Grant parted ways at the entrance to the castle to avoid suspicion. She then went to Nephira's quarters.

Upon entering the room, she sat on the chair offered to her. Then Nephira offered her a glass of wine, but Serphiano shook her head. The abhorrent wave was becoming more intense.

"I'll get right to the point, Nephira. Are you keeping any humans near you?"

"Keeping? Perhaps, you are referring to Suzuki?"

"Suzuki... It is an odd name. I wonder if it is some otherworldly being summoned as a hero?"

"I do not know much about it. He's a human who was in the castle of Syness at the time of the invasion. I made him my slave. He is quiet and obedient. He is an excellent slave. No problems at all."

"Is that so? I would like to see the slave once, if possible.

"You want to see Suzuki? I'll make him bring in some sake right now. Just a moment. Fufufufu"

Sephiano has never seen Nephira laugh outside of battle. And yet, she was grinning as if she was proudly introducing her son.

It was futile to try to persuade someone who is under the influence of powerful sorcery. There is a simpler and surefire way... to kill the sorcerer. Serphiano believes this is the best strategy.

(The moment the door is opened. I'll kill Suzuki immediately, regardless of his intentions.)

Serphiano had made up her mind. Under the table, out of Nephira's sight, the nails of her right hand sharpened as if they were knives.

(With this claw, Suzuki's... yes, Suzuki's back, let's give it a good scratch. Kukuku. Gently and carefully scratch him without... hurt... ing... him...?)

Serphiano was astonished when she noticed the change in her thoughts.

(Th--Th--This is ludicrous!! Before I had even met him, I was ready to kill him!? I--I had no idea it would be this powerful!!)

It was like a divine power. Suzuki's ability far exceeded Serphiano's imagination.

Step, step, step.

(Something is approaching. This is bad! A monster! Suzuki is coming!)

(F--For now, I can bear it somehow! But! This is... before I have even met him...! If I look directly at him...!)

"Excuse me..."

Suzuki awkwardly brought the plate to the table.

"Gyuuu!?"

Unexpectedly, Serphiano let out a yell she had never uttered before. At the same time, she became flushed, and a certain part of her felt a bit damp. Suzuki, in his awkwardness and cuteness, was something that couldn't be described in a thousand words.

"This is Dame Serphiano, the Chief Advisor of the Demon's Lord Army."

"Uh--Uh-hum. Nice to meet you. I'm Suzuki."

After placing the plate containing sausages on the table, he curtsies politely with a bow.

(W--What an unprecedented cuteness! Ah, adorable! Adorable! I want to make him my slave.... HUH!)

"Rasseraaaaaaaaaa!!"

Serphiano, making a strange noise, slammed her face into the plate of sausages that Suzuki had brought in. Suzuki and Nephira were startled.

"No, wait!? This person, what is she doing!?"

"Wh--What's wrong!? Dame Serphiano!?"

(Stop----------------it!! I'm losing my marbles!!)

In an instant, all sense of reason flew out of her body. What is this, this creature? It's just too cute! Isn't it?!

Feeling fear as if her brain was being eroded, Serphiano repeatedly slammed her face against the plate. The plate cracked, and the sausage got crushed into a soggy mess.

(Phew~ phew. I can... Somehow...!)

When Serphiano looked up, she saw Nephira and Suzuki staring at her with shocked expressions on their faces. She was able to keep her reason, but she felt that she had lost something important as a general.

Serphiano tried to smooth the situation over with a wry smile.

"Hohoho. It sure is a delicious sausage, isn't it? Nom, nom!"

"Pl---She's eating, by the plate? Is this how the Demon Lord's Chief Advisor eats!?"

"Suzuki! That is not important! Dame Serphiano's face is bleeding! Get something to wipe her up!"

"I'm on it!"
