Chapter 218 – We Would Go In!

---

After returning once to Fendel Village, we decided to hold a strategy meeting with everyone.

“It is too dangerous… that armor is able to use Hide.”

Said Mette, after I had explained everything.

Melk also had an unusually serious expression as she nodded.

“And there may be more of them.”
“Indeed. Even if Sir Joshua’s magic is powerful…”

Asuha said awkwardly.

I wanted to talk to the Demon King about a truce.
However, instead of meeting somewhere in between, we were asked to go directly to the Demon King’s camp.

In the past, there were occasions where the front lines became locked in a stalemate, and both the human and Demon King armies engaged in discussions about a potential ceasefire.

In such cases, the side that was at a disadvantage would want to tip the scale, so to speak. Though, I wasn’t sure which side had the advantage now… But since Bish and the orcs had retreated, it did not seem like things were going well for them. But in the south, the Demon King had an army that was dozens of times larger than the Fendel population.

That being said, I had never heard of a messenger being hurt by the Demon King army.

Of course, that was when I was on the human side. But now we were a group of demihumans. So how would they treat us…

Besides, that goblin, Grinia, would hold a grudge against us. And the orc Bish would have friends as well. Perhaps our request to negotiate would anger them, and they might order the soldiers to attack us.

It was dangerous indeed.

However, Iria said,

“I…do not like this at all. However, that is why I will go with you.”
“Iria…”

The others also volunteered to go.

But I answered,

“My original idea…was to go with just Iria.”

No one complained.

Everyone was in agreement that Iria was the most skilled fighter within the alliance.
Besides, if too many people accompanied me, then we would have to worry about them, if it came to a battle. So in a way, it would be safer if it was just Iria and me.

And so they all nodded.

And then I said,

“…Well, in case of an emergency, I will also summon Ronea the demon. Also, there is something I want to ask all of you.”
“Ask us?”

Mette said.

“You know…that thing we made? And the foxfolk are masters with Hide. And there is the Nowa tribe as well.”
“I see. Take them by surprise.”
“In the worst case scenario, we will threaten the enemy… We must finish preparations by tomorrow. Will you all help me?”

I asked, and everyone nodded.

And then Ymir said,

“Of course! Also, we have made new bombs! They will create even bigger explosions!”
“Melk and Asuha have also created new spells. Do not worry.”

With the strength of everyone in Fendel combined, nothing could scare us.

We would take this opportunity to show our power, and ensure that the Demon King’s army never attacked Fendel again.

While I was also concerned about what the Demon King and Kyuby were plotting, this was the most important thing now.

Of course, if circumstances permit, I will look into the Demon King intrigue as well.

In any case, I was sure that this black armor held some kind of secret.

I will have to keep an eye on its movements during negotiations…

And so I began to prepare for the coming day, that we would visit the Demon King’s camp.
