Kikaro Plain again.
As soon as Tilias and Misole ended the communication, they opened their arms wide as they looked at Luna.
“…Couldn’t it be that we’re going to hug each other to commemorate the alliance? Oh, of course, our Soga Lord hasn’t fully recognized you as an ally yet.”
“No way. Cut Misol with me from now on. Sakiel will be more suspicious of us if things go back to normal.”
“Should I? You can just say that they ran away after seeing the two die.”
“Would you believe me?”
“If a colleague said so, I would believe it.”
“For Zito or Paellito Sachiel, we are subordinates, not colleagues. Besides, I’m from Biseps, so my eyes are not good. It’s good in many ways to return as injured as possible.”
Luna showed a hint of reluctance. Although Jin did not fully accept the alliance, if the story of Tilias and Misool is true.
The two were close to righteous people. In addition, they were pitiful because their families were held hostage, acted as spies, and sometimes had to kill their colleagues with their own hands. It was not comfortable to cut them down.
“Yes, we are used to suffering, so there is nothing to be uncomfortable about. Hurry up, I don’t have much time anymore.”
“Ugh, how much can I hurt you?”
“Make it look like you’re about to die.”
“Haha, I can’t help it.”
Suaak-!
Krantel fertilized the two for a while. Purple blood and flesh splattered. Sometimes Luna deliberately mixed a little bit of red energy into her attack, but this was the reason she had to make it clear.
Tilias and Miso did not scream even once while their bodies were being torn apart.
“This should be enough. Damn, I feel uncomfortable.”
“Perfect. If I had known it would be this uncomfortable, I would have hurt myself during the battle earlier.”
“That’s how it was rumored in the realm of demons that you, Baek Kyung, are a demon without blood or tears. It’s because I’ve already annihilated several generals and demon lords. He was a nicer person than I thought.”
“Are there any rumors about our little princess?”
“It is not yet, but a video of the power of ice melting the generals has spread among the demon lords. You’d better be careful all the time. Because full ice is subject to special management, just like red energy.”
The two of them hesitated for a while because of the wounds that did not heal, and then took out the last piece of Zito’s flesh.
“We’ll say they used flesh to escape as a last resort.”
“When can we meet again?”
“Perhaps in the not too distant future. I will try to create a means to communicate regularly somewhere in the royal family. I just have to go back.”
“Go and wish me luck.”
“I’ll see you again, Baekkyung Sogungju, you must have a lot of questions, but I’m sorry I couldn’t explain everything.”
As Tilias shattered the flesh, a purple portal suddenly opened. Luna and Siris shrugged as they watched the two disappear into the portal.
“Let’s go back to Tikan, too, Little Princess.”
[Booh!]
“…Since Tilias is gone, the door to the otherworldly snowfield is opening. It is the most difficult class when it comes to power blocking enemies. Judging from the words of the dead Kukan, he said that even the power that comes from Zito’s flesh can be blocked, Tilias said.”
“Anyway, starting with the enemies, I felt like only crazy people appeared, but it seems like the first ones with the potential to become allies appeared.”
As Mort ran through the alien snowfield, the scenery of Tikan Palace appeared in an instant.
“Are you here, sister?”
“So what do you think?”
“It doesn’t feel like a lie. We will have to keep an eye on it in the future.”
“They say they’re going to establish a contact network with Biceps in Inse soon. If you continue to give out valid information like this time, I think it will be okay to trust you a little.”
“I think so too. By the way, I’m worried about the content of the red aura…”
“I was going to talk about that anyway. In this battle, I felt like the red energy was about to run out of control.”
“A runaway?”
“okay. But what to say… I didn’t feel exhausted at all. That was strange.”
“In case you don’t know, it would be best to refrain from using red energy for the time being.”
“I guess so. However, if you start saving the red energy right after today, Tilias and Misol could be in trouble. Above all, I have more faith in my father’s opinion than the demons.”
Unlike Tilias Misool, Shiron never talked about the ‘side effects’ of the red energy. I was just told to save it as much as possible.
“If the consumption of red energy was as dangerous as the demons said, wouldn’t my father have warned me properly? Even though the red energy seemed to run rampant this time, there was no sense of danger at all.”
“I’ve never dealt with red energy, so it’s hard to say. But maybe your father knows it’s dangerous, but he didn’t warn you on purpose.”
Although he has recently escaped demonization and regained his humanity, in the first place, Shiron is by no means a kind and affectionate father.
He knew that the red energy was dangerous, but Jin thought that maybe he was depicting Luna overcoming it on her own and moving on to the next step.
“Ah… it could be. If it’s a father, that’s enough. Then wouldn’t it be right to follow your father’s will even more? After all, the red energy must be a cornerstone you must pass to go further.”
That was also true.
“Hmm, I will leave it entirely up to you to decide on the use of the red aura. But if you don’t feel like it, please stop.”
“Don’t worry, youngest. Sogoongju and I should take a day off and prepare for the next battle. Sogoongju’s Manbing also has a red aura-like ability, so it’s good to look forward to it in the future.”

Jinmagye Maritime Garrison.
Tilias and Misool reported to Sakiel, face to face.
“so. All Jito-sama’s special energy that Layla-sama had taken care of was used up, and Baek Kyung’s red energy was consumed. Is this all?”
“That’s right. Actually, I couldn’t see the answer during the battle, so I wanted to leave at least one piece of flesh, but in order for Misol and I to escape…” “
You did well on that. I don’t know Weiss and Kukan, but losing two of them would have been a huge loss. The number of demon kings and generals is decreasing too fast these days.”
Tilias bowed her head.
“Everything is going worse than Zito expected. Because of Ayula, Jito’s time to come out as royalties has been delayed, and the resistance of royalties is strong. And for some reason, the Biceps seem to be well aware of this fact.”
“Mi Mi Sol?”
Sakiel’s eyes narrowed.
“As soon as we started investing our power in royalties, the Biceps raids became frequent. Did you know?”
“Recently, I had a dinner with the demon lords at Ragal Fern’s castle, but I haven’t heard anything like that.”
“It was the place where Layla-nim and Dylus-nim were together, right? On that same day, the castles of the two men were attacked. Leila’s last name was Bassett, and Dylus’ last name was Twale. Ten generals were killed. More than 200,000 of the demons in the city were kidnapped.”
“…Did you say 200,000?”
Biseps was abducting demons every time he raided.
It was because he thought that was the way to prevent ordinary demons from degenerating into Jito’s play tools.
“Until now, there were at most 10,000 to 20,000. Abducting 200,000 of them all of a sudden means that Bassett’s ability has become stronger for some reason. It may have absorbed the power of the demons it kidnapped… or it may have restored the ability of the weakened Immortal Zone. It is not for nothing that the land ruled by Biseps was called immortal.”
Tilias could easily grasp Sakiel’s intentions.
‘…I’m also from Biseps, so I guess I want to check if I’ve recovered the power of the Immortal Zone.’
In fact, Tilias’ powers in the immortal zone have been restored to a considerable extent. That’s why he was able to block the energy from Jito’s flesh in this battle.
“It is true that my authority has become stronger. However, according to the numbers you mentioned, Basset’s power is ten times stronger than before. It must be on a level I can’t compare to. So I think Bassett didn’t get stronger… he was hiding his strength.”
“He was hiding his power…”
Sakiel nodded and smiled.
“At a time like this, I think it would be great if Tilias-nim also had more hidden power. The two of you, from now on, take care of yourself and prepare to face the white whale once again.”
“Misol!?”
Misol pretended to be scared and rolled her eyes.
“So far, you two are the only Demon Kings who came back alive against Baek Kyung. So there should be more opportunities.”
If I come back alive even after meeting Baek Kyung, then I will not have any doubts.
Sakiel was saying that. Live to be suspected, or die to prove your innocence. It was clearly the worst case of Sakiel’s response that Tilias expected.
‘Next time, I’ll have no choice but to die at the hands of the white whale… If I come back alive again, Sakiel will definitely ask Zito to torture me.’
Tilias had already withstood Zito’s torture. But I didn’t have the confidence to endure one more time. This time, he will tell everything about Biseps during the torture, so it would be much better to tell Luna the circumstances and disappear.
“All right. Next time, I will definitely use up the red power of the white whale.”
“Yes, I look forward to it. just let me go away Oh wait… Zito!”
Bubbling…
Suddenly, Sakiel’s crystal ball turned like boiling, revealing Zito’s face.
{[Hey Sakiel. Are you crazy?]}
“Zito?”
{[Why are you doubting Tilias again? Did he forget that he already had a serious interview with me?]}
“Sorry.”
{[Let Tilias and Misol rest for a bit, and send the others to catch the White Whale. Did you understand?]}
Heaven helped.
Tilias thought so and rubbed his chest inwardly. If he and Misol disappeared now, the relationship with the Bamal Alliance, which he had been struggling to build, could have become ambiguous.
“I will.”
{[Yes, I’ll keep giving you the flesh, so tell the demon king and the generals to deal with the white whale properly. Curse me.]}
As Jito’s energy in the crystal ball faded, Sakiel sweated.
“…I’m sorry for doubting you, Tilias. Please go back.”
“No, Mr. Sakiel. If you need anything else, please call me anytime.”
“Misol Misol.”
And at that time, Jito trembled in the Jinma Realm and smiled.
{Ayu, when I see our cuties, I just want to bite them to death. is not it? Helluram.}
