The Demon King Seems to Conquer the World

Chapter 124: (Self Edited) 300 People

After getting dressed at some extent and poking a cane on the ground toward the castle gate, the woman from yesterday was waiting on the way there. She sat on a chair that was suddenly placed in the hallway, and there was a neatly shaped document on her lap.

“Yuri-sama.” (??)

Once she put the package on her lap on the chair, she stood with the document. On the chair, there was a box containing the sovereignty seal that I saw yesterday. It seemed that she brought it with her.

“This is the necessary document. Please confirm.” (??)

“Thank you.” (Yuri)

I received the bundle and read it quickly.

‘There are seven in all, is it?’

When I read it briefly, there was nothing wrong with it.

“Myaro, check for any mistakes.” (Yuri)

“Yes.” (Myaro)

Myaro immediately began to read the document.

“Carol, check the contents of the box.” (Yuri)

“Understood.” (Carol)

‘It is almost impossible in the situation, but it would be difficult if the contents were replaced with a lump of lead. It feels unpleasant to be told in the future that the Shanti’s treasure was lost due to the fool named Yuri.’

“It should be fine.” (Carol)

‘It seems alright.’

Myaro finished reading a bit later.

“I think there’s no problem.” (Myaro)

“I see.” (Yuri)

I received a bundle of paper.

“Please take this.” (??)

A cylinder was immediately presented.

‘The document can be rolled up and stored without folding it, and it is made by steaming a thin wooden plate and bending it into a cylinder. There is a part that becomes a lid for inserting a graduation certificate. This is a fine item. It is with waxed parchment extended over the wooden cylinder, and processed to repel water.’

“That really helps.”  (Yuri)

The seven pieces of paper were rolled up, put in a cylinder and the lid was put.

“Her Majesty the Queen couple will not come to see you off.” (??)

‘Is that so? Perhaps, they want to reduce the chances of her daughter’s companion being exposed. Normally, the prince consort himself may not show his face and encourage her at the departure of the refugees.’

“They are adoring parents.” (Yuri)

“Yes.” (??)

The woman smiled faintly as if she were in trouble. It seemed that the feeling of longing for the queen and the prince consort… no, the feeling of longing for the royal family is conveyed.

‘She’s wearing a night robe. This Sword is very different from Shaalta’s Sword. However, did I mention that the Queen’s Sword I only know is Tilet? It’s that person. I wonder if she’s just unfriendly.’

“So, when does the ‘load’ arrive?” (Yuri)

“It will be a bit late, but we will hand it over responsibly to you by the time you leave.” (??)

“Understood.” (Yuri)

‘I wonder if she is reluctant to leave. Well, it doesn’t matter as long as she’s not late.’

“Here, you can have this package.” (??)

The woman offered a thick shoulder bag. Perhaps, it was getting in all the way. In the part that hit the corner, there was a thick patch that seemed to be as thick as a centimeter.

‘That’s more than satisfactory. Even from their side, they probably don’t want the seal to break on the way.’

“That really helps.”  (Yuri)

I picked up the sovereignty seal’s box that was on the chair.

There was an unusual weight. I wanted to hold it with one hand and put it in a shoulder bag that was opened with the other hand, but I had to hold it with both hands.

‘I see. It has a gold seal in it. God has an unusual weight compared to its volume. In addition to that, jade isn’t light, so it would be heavy. r rather, why did they make a spare stamp with gold? It’s fine to make it with hardwood. Actually, that would be more convenient.’

“Here you go.” (??)

The person with a night robe opened the shoulder bag and brought it to me. I held the box firmly with both hands and put it inside. Sure enough, it fitted perfectly as if it was made to order.

When I put on the shoulder bag, it was so heavy that my shoulder hurt.

“Well then. I see you again when you receive the ‘load’.” (Yuri)

When I said that…

“Yes. Be careful.” (??)

After bowing deeply, the person with a night robe disappeared.

—

When I went out of the castle from the door next to the castle gate, I couldn’t see the soldiers who were supposed to get up and prepare. The wake-up time should have already passed.

“I heard the breakfast bell ring a while ago. They’re gathered in the dining room.” (Myaro)

Myaro said it as if she saw what was in my mind.

“I see.” (Yuri)

“The horses are tied there.” (Myaro)

“Aah, how nostalgic.” (Yuri)

Two horses and two Galloping Birds were tied on the horse clasp right next to the dining room.

One of them was Myaro’s Galloping Bird. Since it was a bird of the Hou Household, it looked familiar to me.

“Shall I ride a horse?” (Myaro)

Myaro looked at the Galloping Bird and asked.

“Aah… yes.” (Yuri)

For a moment, she looked at Carol.

‘Myaro is still somewhat awkward. There are two surplus because one injured person left it and returned already. Carol and I should ride here. The Galloping Bird can crouch when straddling, but before that, the scene of Myaro mounting the Galloping Bird and leave us alone can cause problems.’

“Can I have that? You can ride a horse.” (Yuri)

“I’m not very good at it.” (Myaro)

“Since it is trained by the enemy, it’s a bit different, but you’ll get used to it soon.” (Yuri)

“Understood.” (Yuri)

As I approached Myaro’s Galloping Bird, it seemed to remember my face. It knelt to make it easier to mount. I held the cane aside and mounted the bird.

“Alright, let’s go.” (Yuri)

Then, I noticed.

‘One horse will be left behind. Should I pull its reins?’

—

When I went out to the city, it seemed that there was a notification and preparation. The main street was full of refugees we were planning to take home.

After the men, there were many girls. It seemed that only a young child with a light weight seemed to be able to walk on his own.

The old people were said that they couldn’t keep up. I didn’t know when and what kind of notification was given, but there was probably a dispute.

“I can’t keep up.” (Yuri)

“Looks like it.” (Myaro)

For the time being, the space for the Galloping Bird was open in a straight line, but I was still afraid to proceed.

‘If a child suddenly jumped out, I might step on them.’

In the meantime, I saw that the soldiers had gathered in a post with an open door. That was the 300 soldiers entrusted to us.

When I approached and looked at what they were doing, it was as if the command wasn’t working. As expected, they weren’t lying down on the ground, but they were sitting and standing, so they were scattered around.

‘For the time being, everyone should have been in the school of Knight, and this is evidence that they haven’t been commanded from the beginning. If someone orders them to stand, they will stand. They should have received that much education. I don’t think they have received any orders since they were pulled out of their original unit and being told to ‘go here’.’

“Is there anyone who fits in the role of commander?” (Yuri)

“It doesn’t seem to be.” (Myaro)

‘It seems that there is none. She may have thought that if she nominates without my permission, it would cause confusion. It is a relatively important issue, so I can’t say that it’s a mistake. Even so, in such a case, I think that there is a desire to partition and will be partitioned. As the prince consort said, it seemed that all the high-ranking people, who were in the partitioning position, haven’t joined.’

“Phew… it’s a hassle.” (Yuri)

‘It’s going to be a pain to put them in order.’

“Are the unit members coming over here?” (Yuri)

“The Galloping Bird unit should have arrived near the city gate by this time. There is also security for our luggage, so the eagle soldiers are left at the encampment where they were” (Myaro) paid off.

“I see… got it. Let’s start walking together with the refugees.” (Yuri)

I looked around.

“For that, it can’t be helped.” (Yuri)

The refugees are all carrying large luggage. Even if there is a small pull-up cart, there is a guy who holds a dresser in the street.

I don’t think it’s possible to bring a drawer to Shaalta, regardless of wartime or peacetime.

First of all, it is of utmost importance to let go of the large luggage somehow. If I don’t do that, we can’t even start moving.

“For the times being, let’s incorporate the 300 people with our unit.” (Yuri)

—

“Oi.” (Yuri)

I stood at the entrance of the post where there were 300 people inside and outside. I didn’t call out specifically to anyone.

“Yes sir!” (??)

A man, who stood in a serious expression, responded with a salute.

‘He has been standing all the time, and he is likely to be serious. In this situation, I would be the person sitting on the side.’

“I’m not sure how much you know, but I’m Yuri Hou, your superior. I want to give orders right away.” (Yuri)

“Yes, sir! Please.” (??)

“Among these people, tell me who is the best among you guys.” (Yuri)

When I said that, the man opened his mouth. However, he soon accepted the anomalous command and began to think.

‘I wonder what I would do if he says that he is the best.  Wouldn’t that be interesting?’

“Please excuse me. I think they are two people, one who is smart, and the other is good with his arm!!” (??)

‘Is that so? Well… frankly speaking, I don’t care which one. Actually, I want to say a popular guy, but I think he will have a tie with a General household.’

“Is the person with a good arm has a decent head?” (Yuri)

“No, he is stupid!” (??)

‘Stupid, huh… There are various types of idiots, so if he is an idiot who people like, I can use him.’

“Call the smart guy.” (Yuri)

‘This would be better.’

—

It was a very sullen man he brought. The unkempt black hair man seemed to have a terrible sleeping habit while waking, and he was looking at me with reproachful eyes.

He had a medium build body, but it seemed that he wasn’t very trained. He looked a bit overweight.

“I brought him!” (??)

“…” (??)

‘Normally, in such a case, he would give his first and last name. This is common sense, so it’s not different because he is the Knights of Kilghina.’

“What is it? Why don’t you give your name?” (Yuri)

“This guy’s name is Guillaume Zuzu!” (??)

The mouth of the one on the side opened.

“I didn’t ask you. Tell me your name yourself.” (Yuri)

‘Hmm. Somehow, he looks at me as if appraising me, but I don’t mind. It seems that the 300 people are also guessing what is happening, and they are starting to look at us.’

“I’m trying to figure out why I need to give my name.” (Guillaume)

‘Hoho.’

“Wha…! How rude.” (Carol)

It was Carol, who was mounting a horse behind me.

‘Well, this girl isn’t used to this kind of thing. I’m used to it in my company relation, so I don’t mind. Cuffe was the same, but there’s something interesting about this. If he is incompetent, he would just be a trash.’

“Oi, lend me a spear.” (Yuri)

I said to the man earlier.

“Ah, uh… He is a rude man, but…” (??)

“Silent. Lend it to me.” (Yuri)

When I said so with high pressure, the handle of a spear was presented. The man named Guillaume stood without making a slight movement.

I stood on the stirrup with my left foot.

‘The condition of the wound seems to be alright. If I make too many mistakes, I might kill him. Even if he dies, I don’t mind because he is rude.’

I squinted and measured the distance. I grabbed the handle to the right length, and carried the spear on my shoulder.

“Hup–!” (Yuri)

The tip drew a large arc and hit Guillaume’s forehead. The unkempt hair on the forehead danced slowly.

It touched the hair, but it didn’t pierce it. There was a feeling that I could cut his hair.

Somehow I was concerned. When I pulled the tip of the spear and observed it, the edge of the blade was sharpened roughly.

‘The blade that is carefully sharpened with a good whetstone will look wet when the sharpening disappears. During the war, it’s unavoidable that the spear isn’t in perfect condition. I would like them to at least take care of the spear. Oh well.’

“You. If you call yourself talented, hold the unit together and bring them to the city gate. If you don’t like hearing orders, disappear from the unit.” (Yuri)

When I looked at the place where the blade passed in front of him, his eyes didn’t close. He might be courageous.

‘I don’t know whether it is arrogance or ignorance of the world, but that’s not a big deal. Well, if he can’t do it, he can’t… I mean, everyone is watching, and if they aren’t stupid, they will come by themselves.’

“I’ll return the spear. Thanks.” (Yuri)
