Chapter III: They Say a Girl in Love Is Unbeatable, but Boys Can Overcome the Impossible Too

“This might be bad.”

Back in Archdemon Palace’s throne room, Gremory put on a rare display by sullenly grumbling to herself. Kimaris, Vepar, and Raphael were with her. The four of them were the strongest left in Kianoides at present.

Several hours had passed since Zagan’s group had entered Kasytilio. Due to some kind of barrier, it was no longer possible to contact them, even with telepathy. Regardless, Barbatos’s shadow remained connected.

Or at least, it had until now, signaling that something had definitely happened.

With all of them there, I doubt the worst came to pass, but still...

Barbatos simply might have been detected, leading to the barrier being strengthened as a result. But in that case, Zagan would’ve left behind some kind of clue. In other words, Zagan was in a situation where he couldn’t act freely. If anything was to happen to Kianoides, now was the time.

“Kimaris, Vepar, be extra vigi—”

Before Gremory could finish talking, Vepar picked up his staff and stood up.

“It seems we’re already under attack,” he stated, a bead of sweat running down his cheek.

Gremory noticed it a beat later. Something was in front of Archdemon Palace. It had quite literally appeared out of nowhere. She’d detected nothing of the sort mere moments ago, but now, she was practically choking on the mana blowing in from that direction despite being all the way in the throne room.

That’s no human... What is it?

Whatever it was, it was bizarrely powerful.

“Is that a demon...?” Kimaris asked cautiously.

Vepar shook his head and replied, “Not exactly. I remember this sensation. It appeared right before I came here... Samyaza, was it? It seems to be the same as that one.”

That was the name of the intelligent demon that even Zagan had been unable to defeat on his own.

“That’s the worst-case scenario,” Gremory said, her expression grim, “Still, it’s one we predicted.”

They’d assumed Samyaza wasn’t the only intelligent demon. Maybe it was best to call them Samyaza-class demons. It was unlikely to be under Marchosias’s command, but the demons had their own ambitions. That was why it’d been highly likely for them to take action exactly at a time when nobody could interfere. As such, Gremory was quick to make her decision.

“We’re abandoning Archdemon Palace. Lord Raphael, take command of the evacuation.”

“Understood.”

The butler had already relayed the message. All the sorcerers inside the palace had stopped their work to evacuate the premises. Zagan’s subordinates had returned from their assignments from across the continent, making for quite a lot of people to get out of the building, but there was more than one exit they could use.

“Well done,” Gremory said. “Then I suppose it’s our job to stall the intruder.”

It was pretty bad to leave Zagan with nowhere to return home to, but he was the type of king to prioritize his subordinates’ safety.

Heaven’s Phosphor doesn’t work too well against a Samyaza-class demon, after all.

Gremory’s golem was located at the palace, but even with that, she wouldn’t be able to defeat such an opponent.
