Chapter 1: The One Calling Out to Reiji

In a sparse, candle lit room, stood a woman, her bewitching figure clad in a knight’s outfit, a sword strapped to her waist.. Her hair was white, and she had dark skin, with eyes the color of blood. On its own, these features wouldn’t be rare for a female knight of Astel or Nelferia. However, the small horns on her head and her tapered ears set her apart from such humans—she was a demon. It was no exaggeration to say that she was the demon general whose form most closely resembled a human’s.

Maybe coming here was a mistake...

The demon general Moolah deeply regretted coming here. She shouldn’t have agreed to such a summons. She should’ve left the castle, and devoted herself entirely to the upcoming battle. She exasperated herself with her serious, upright personality that prevented her from doing so, and let out a dispirited sigh.

Her summoner was the sole reason for her concern: Lishbaum. In the demon army, he was something like a staff officer. A slim man with golden hair and a pair of twisted horns, his origins were a complete question mark, and so were his abilities. As fellow children of the Evil God, she had a general grasp of his power, but far too much of him remained a mystery.

Demon Lord Nakshatra’s declaration to invade human territory was still fresh in Moolah’s mind. With the timing deemed appropriate, a date for the invasion had finally been set. That was when she’d gotten this summons from the most suspicious of men.

“Oh? I see you’ve arrived ahead of me.”

She heard a voice playing dumb from just outside the room. She directed her hostility through the door, but Lishbaum paid her anger at his late arrival no mind.

“Good day, Lady Moolah.”

“Hmph.”

“Oh my, it seems I’m rather hated.”

“Of course you are. My liege is the only one who favors your existence.”

“I can’t even imagine what makes you hate me so.”

“How shameless. Put a hand to your chest and give it some thought,” Moolah spat out in disgust before cutting to the chase. “So? Why have you called me here?”

“You’ll be commanding the upcoming battle, yes?”

“You know that. I hear you’re the one who proposed this damned plan to Nakshatra-sama to begin with.”

“I apologize if I’ve offended you. I was simply thinking of having you take the Evil God’s new children with you.”

“The ones you unveiled the other day?”

“Yes.”

“Do you have Nakshatra-sama’s approval?”

“I do.”

“Then I don’t mind... So? Where are these new children?”

“Right here.”

“What?”

A visible change occurred in the room. The veil of darkness in one of the corners was suddenly peeled back, as if a curtain had been there from the very beginning in order to put on this ostentatious display.

What was revealed was an utterly grotesque monster. Its figure was asymmetric, and misshapen, possessing a ferocity and fiendishness entirely without intelligence. A human would certainly faint upon seeing such an ominous, repulsive figure.

Though it was the second time Moolah saw one, she felt like she was never going to get used to it.
