After Being Sold Out By The Empire, I Decide To Assist The Demon King

  Chapter 22 Demon Archon

  【Please give me your mana】This kind of words actually has a derivative meaning beyond the literal meaning, and it also became popular in the empire first, and then spread throughout the entire continent.

  In the usual sense, it is generally believed that the birth of an heir comes from the mutual blending of the blood of the parents and the corresponding soul (mana), which is why the children of the nobles will only marry other noble heirs they like.

  So, the meaning of [give me your mana] is similar to that of [give me your DNA].

  But it is also the kind of statement that is not easy to be misunderstood... It can be deliberately interpreted in a distorted direction, but generally speaking, the person communicating will not think in that direction.

   "Is it related to the consul?"

  For Xilina who asked this question, Ira nodded and said, "I'm more curious, is there any difference between Mana with special talents like Tekapu and the Mana of ordinary succubuses?"

   "Hmm...can I consider this as [fertilizer]-related compensation?"

   After hesitating for a while, Sirina said so...

   This is a very excessive thing. Although there was no thorough discussion on what kind of remuneration should be given to Ira, there is no doubt that the remuneration should not be offset in this way.

"Can."

   But Ira said so, and Xilina, who never expected him to answer so decisively, raised her head in doubt, and then her tail was grabbed by Ira.

  As soon as the warm palm and tail came into contact, Xilina's body trembled violently.

"what!"

  If he ignored Tekap’s strange cry before, now Ira also ignores Sirina’s whisper and panting when drawing the magic power. He drew a similar amount of mana, although he let go immediately.

   "Hoo...hoo..."

  "Ira-sama...if you attack suddenly...it's too much..."

Yila glanced at Xilina, who was blaming him with blushing cheeks, and said very simply: "I don't need any reward, if you want to repay me, the moment the future Demon Lord decides to betray me, Just think about it for a moment.”

   "..."

  These words seemed to make Xilina feel relieved to accept the well-intentioned evasion, and seemed to come from Ira's own true thoughts. For a while, Xilina also recovered from the wonderful feeling that Mana was being squeezed out.

  It seems that Ira was really confused by the attitude of the empire. What he said undoubtedly meant that everyone in the Demon King’s Land would remember what he did... instead of giving him real rewards.

   Treat each other with sincerity, so expecting a sincere return is by no means an excessive thing, and it can even be said to be a bit humble.

   "There will never be a day like that."

  Silina who said so promised, she bowed her head respectfully towards Ira, and said: "If one day Ira-sama wants to leave the Demon King's Territory, we will never stop it."

   This is the biggest promise a maid supervisor can make. Although you can feel it when you get along with her, Xilina actually has much more rights than a maid in the general sense.

  In Xilina's words, a voice familiar to both of them came from the other side; "Yes, after all, it is impossible for the monsters to stop a consul, this approach will not work at all?"

Vera who said this came from the other end of the aisle, and while fiddling with her big mage hat, she said: "If I want to imagine such a scene, I can only kill the blocked army by Ira. .”

   This is true. It can even be said... If Ira wants to leave now, no one can stop her.

Vera seemed to have been eavesdropping on the conversation between Ila and Xilina since a long time ago. She looked curiously at Xilina whose blush had not faded, and said, "It turns out that Mana was drawn by the consul like that." Is it the feeling? Isn’t it on the battlefield?”

  Vera, who said so, was full of thoughts and imaginations about the monsters who harvested life and mana on the battlefield... Maybe their death would not be more painful than killing ordinary professionals? After all, you die while having fun?

  The cranky Vera felt that as a mage with a strong desire for knowledge, she should try it by herself. She put her pale to gray arm in front of Ila, and said, "Please accept my Mana."

   There is no doubt that she wants Ira to extract her mana.

  But it’s very interesting, she deliberately used the most deliberately distorted words in the empire, which can be extended to something similar to [accept my deoxyribonucleic acid].

   It's hard to believe she didn't mean it.

  Although Yila knew that Vera had misunderstood something, she didn't know that she had thought so much. He put his hand on Vera's arm in doubt, and said, "Then, please don't resist."

  Withdrawing the magic power belonging to the lich from Vera's body, he felt the flow of mana on his wing column, and said: "But maybe only the succubus has a special reaction to the extraction of mana."

  Ira deliberately told Vera after the collection had already begun... Anyway, it was picked up for nothing, and it could even be said that it was Mana who came to the door automatically, so there was no need for him not to collect it.

  No matter how you think about it, when you use your arm to pierce a monster to extract mana on the battlefield, if it can still bring you the same pleasure as a succubus extracting mana, then the majesty of the archon seems to have disappeared.

   Speaking of it, I don’t feel so majestic anymore.

   "..."

Vera's mana as a lich is of very good quality, just like a half-dracolich that was dealt with during the war before. Ira remembers very clearly that she was very comfortable using the third wing column (range attack) Lich Mana within.

   "Ugh... this feeling..."

  Vera, who realized that she would not have the same expression as Xilina because of this, felt a little pity. She tried hard to find a suitable title from the words she was familiar with, but in the end she could only say: "It's quite novel and wonderful."

   "What's even more amazing is, you consuls, how do you distinguish between my Mana when I was a lich and the Mana when I was a human? From my point of view, they are actually similar in essence."

Vera, who was curious, looked at the gray-white mana condensed in Yila's hands. Feeling that her magic power was being used continuously, Vera said: "Why can't the [Consul] use human mana? What about Mana who can only use monsters?"

   Under Vera's curious doubts, Ira slightly narrowed her eyes, but in the end he decided to explain...

  Ira: "Why do you think it's not okay?"

  Vera: "Huh?"

  …

   "Human beings cannot be used as [bullets]. This is a constraint rather than a restriction on the consul. It is [should not] rather than [cannot]. This is my proposal and my design."

Ira said this, thinking about something, he looked at Vera, patted her on the shoulder, and said: "In a special way, erase the few bytes of the world spell in the spell bond around my neck Go, and I shall be an unfettered consul."

  At that time, Ira will truly become a fearsome professional...a consul belonging to monsters.

   "Demon... Archon?"

  Vera muttered to herself.
