—While he was being cornered, Mercurius thought back to what happened before he’d come to this country.

The devilfolk were being made to dance. Mercurius had always thought that. He knew that they were a people of mana who would just spawn from somewhere and oppose humanity for no real reason. Mercurius also knew that if they ever stopped antagonizing humanity, they would turn into mana and die. It was as if they were a magic spell that could not fulfill its purpose.

I know. I’m a puppet. I’m nothing more than a puppet given the role of attacking humans from birth... Even if I have a sense of self, I’m still just a human-shaped tool with no free will.

But why? For what purpose? Just who is making poor puppets like us?

While walking through the dim castle, Mercurius pondered his own raison d’etre. Even if I won, what would happen then? If we disappear, if we don’t antagonize humans, then destroying humanity would be putting the cart before the horse. All that’ll happen is that we’ll self-destruct. So is the creator telling us to hurry up and disappear once our roles are over? ...How insane.

“Mercurius!”

“Oh, it’s you, Luna.”

A girl with honey-colored hair stopped Mercurius. She was wearing light armor over purple inner-wear that emphasized ease of movement. It was clear she was trying to cross-dress, but it wasn’t working. The only ones who would be fooled by her dress would be idiots like Mars. She had her breasts bound in a wrap, but Mercurius knew she was pretty well stacked.

As she came running over, Mercurius turned to look at her with a puzzled expression. “Luna... What’s going on with your skin and eyes?”

“Huh?”

The racial characteristics of devilfolk were blue or green skin and eyes with the whites and blacks reversed. Luna was no exception; she should have had those characteristics. But right now, Luna was standing in front of Mercurius with white skin and human-like eyes. Mercurius had only asked that question out of idle curiosity, but Luna clearly started to panic before answering as if she were clearly trying to come up with an excuse.

“Ah, no, uhh... This is...infiltration! Yes, an infiltration mission. I won’t be able to enter a human town if I don’t look like a human, right?”

“There shouldn’t be any point in staying in such a disguise here, though...”

“Ahh... Uhh... B-By being like this all the time, I can get used to it so I don’t mess up in the field!”

...That’s a lie. Mercurius internally criticized her rash excuse.

When infiltrating a human town, devilfolk had to disguise themselves. Mercurius understood that. Jupiter did it, too. In fact, Mars was basically the only idiot who would be caught dead anywhere near a human town without a disguise. But that was no reason to be in human disguise all the time, especially because they’d be liable to be mistaken for a human and be attacked by other devilfolk.

Well, there was basically no one rude enough to attack a girl from the Seven Luminaries.
