From Becoming the Master of Monsters

You mean, if I don't choose to join you, then more than 200,000 kingdom soldiers will not be able to go back alive?

Hearing Yuto's words, the expression of the warrior captain Gazef, who was originally quite tough, turned a little ugly.

It has to be said that although Gazef is loyal to the kingdom, he also values ​​the lives of his soldiers, and if more than 200,000 kingdom soldiers die here, the kingdom will basically be ruined.

What the Sorcerous Kingdom wants is E-Rantel, but the kingdom has lost so many soldiers that it cannot protect its original territory.

Even if the Sorcerous Kingdom doesn't take action, other countries won't turn a blind eye to such fat.

Stop, Yuuto, I don't want to force Gazef Stronov in this way. He is one of the few humans who appreciates it more.

What surprised Yuto was that Momonga, who had always been indifferent and had never rejected Yuto, actually stepped forward to speak for Gazef this time, which showed that Momonga really appreciated him.

You're kidding, who do you think I am? If I wanted the lives of these kingdom soldiers, I wouldn't have stopped you from using super magic in the first place.

I just want to use the lives of these 200,000 Kingdom soldiers to make a deal with the Kingdom.

If the kingdom agrees, these twenty people can naturally be taken back by the warrior chief, and we will not continue to hunt down your king.

Gazef was stunned for a moment after hearing what Yuto said. Not only did he let him go back with the king, but he also returned the kingdom's soldiers without killing any of them?

The other party obviously won a big victory, but they made such a concession, so the other party should want more.

First of all, E-Rantel must be given up to the Sorcerous Kingdom to establish a kingdom, and secondly, the status of the Sorcerous Kingdom must be recognized.

Then there is the second point. The current king must abdicate, and the golden princess Lana will inherit the throne and pay certain compensation to the Sorcerous Kingdom.

As long as they agree to the above two points, the people of the Sorcerous Kingdom will choose to withdraw their troops this time and return the 200,000 Kingdom soldiers.

how? Your Excellency, Warrior Commander, I think these two conditions are not too harsh, and the king of the kingdom should agree to it.

The conditions mentioned by Yuto obviously made Gazef stunned for a moment, because he originally thought that the other party would open his mouth like a lion.

But the result was somewhat beyond his expectation. The conditions given by the other party were indeed surprisingly loose.

The cession of E-Rantel to the other party has already become a fait accompli. After all, the kingdom's defeat in this war was not too miserable, and it had no right to refuse.

As for the second point, although Gazef didn't know why the Sorcerer Kingdom chose Princess Lana to inherit the throne.

But the old king was old, and due to this defeat, he might have taken the blame and abdicated.

The eldest prince of the kingdom is a waste with great ambition but little talent. Originally, the throne could only go to the second prince or the third princess, Princess Lana.

And compared to the second prince, the third princess, Princess Lana, also has a higher reputation among the people. Although she lacks the support of the kingdom's nobles, in fact, there are not many nobles left in the kingdom because they were captured alive due to previous demon attacks.

Can I know why you chose Princess Lana to inherit the throne? What is your purpose!

The simple truth is that if the old king sent troops and was defeated, and made us unhappy, then he would naturally abdicate to appease our anger.

As for why the Golden Princess was chosen, it was because she was a smart person and knew the consequences of continuing to wrangle with the Sorcerer Kingdom.

Choose a hot-headed guy to be the king. If he still wants to take back E-Rantel, I can't guarantee that he will be able to hold back next time.

The reason for choosing the Golden Princess is naturally very simple, because the other party is now with them, and with the help of Albedo, she has become a little devil like her.

The nobles in the kingdom are still in the Great Tomb of Nazarick. As the monarch of a country, Princess Lana is a part of their Great Tomb of Nazarick. The entire kingdom is said to belong to the Great Tomb of Nazarick, but in fact there is no difference.

And the warrior captain Gazef and the 200,000 soldiers of the kingdom, who were loyal to the kingdom and the new king, naturally became the so-called own people, but they may not know it.

Gazef was only a warrior captain and had no right to decide such matters, but he was still the king and Rebun was now at the rear of the battlefield.

Because of the ability to block space, although no one was chasing them, they failed to escape.

By the way, I also have a personal request, that is, I hope that your Excellency, the Warrior Commander, will not reveal my relationship with Ainz Ooal Gown to others.

I understand. Does this also require signing a contract?

That's not necessary. I believe in the character of Your Majesty the Warrior Commander.

Gazef finally found the king, Lord Rebun, and several adventurers protecting them at the edge of the battlefield.

Because the space was blocked, they kept spinning back and forth. They were already extremely anxious. After seeing Gazef arriving, the old king was obviously relieved.

Immediately afterwards, Gazef also told the old king and Marquis Reborn in front of him about the conditions mentioned by Yuto.

However, before the old king made a decision, Reborn said with some emotion: Princess Lana cannot be allowed to inherit the throne, this must be the other party's conspiracy.

If His Majesty must abdicate and compromise, I propose that the Second Prince succeed to the throne. If the Sorcerous Kingdom is worried about continued harassment, we can sign a peace agreement.

After all, after seeing that kind of power, I think those idiots in the kingdom should also recognize the reality.

Lord Rebuen is also one of the few smart people in the kingdom, and he is also one of the people who clearly saw the true face of Princess Lana in her early years.

Although Princess Lana looks sweet and is kind to everyone, these are just disguises.

Although the other party was a human being, in the eyes of Lord Rebuen, he looked more like a demon in human skin.

If the throne is handed over to such a person, the entire kingdom will be ruined sooner or later!

Moreover, the other party deliberately chose Princess Lana, which does not rule out the possibility that the two parties are already secretly connected.

The old king did not have much experience with the fierce reaction of Rebuen Hou. After all, he also knew that Rebuen Hou was very close to the second prince.

However, even if he wants to choose the second prince instead of Lana, is this possible?

The other party seemed to be negotiating conditions with them, but in fact it was an ultimatum.

If you agree to their conditions, everyone can go back intact and the kingdom can still exist.

But if they don't agree, all of them will die here, and the old king doesn't think that the kingdom, which has lost a lot of troops, has the ability to continue to block the Sorcerous Kingdom's attack.
