Volume 1: Chapter 135: Ambush W

　　“…”

　　The Sarkaz war hero watched the troops in the distance.

　　"Teacher, this time we..."

　　His students hesitated to speak.

　　"From now on, Kazdel will be divided openly and secretly, Manfred."

　　Theresis said so.

　　"My sister will lead the Sarkaz onto a completely new path."

　　Before today——

　　He did not agree with Theresa's ideas because she was not powerful enough to gain recognition from the Terran nations.

　　After all, the relationship between countries is always about whoever has the bigger fist is right.

　　But after today, Theresis changed his mind.

　　Theresa became a true demon king.

　　You can control the Sarkaz with just a few words.

　　Even a powerful Sarkaz like him is like this.

　　And behind her stood the swarm of insects—

　　The Lord was in the ranks of the Tower of Babel.

　　No nation on Terra could reach a swarm that had established itself.

　　According to Theresa's words—

　　The Sarkaz were the first Terran to join the Zerg.

　　It's clear what this means.

　　When Terra was integrated into the Zerg, the first one to join always had a special status.

　　As for the Sarkaz becoming part of the Zerg Swarm—

　　Theresis didn't care.

　　Because the Zerg is so powerful that Terra cannot resist it.

　　Any resistance is ridiculous.

　　The Regent is not a supporter of Sarkaz supremacy.

　　"Manfred, tell the soldiers to keep this battle secret and not reveal any details."

　　Before they separated, the Demon King did not use any power to silence his soldiers.

　　The reason is——

　　She believes in herself.

　　Just like my sister in the past.

　　She has a naivety that a Sarkaz Demon King shouldn't have.

　　So, Theresis would not let his sister down.

　　"yes."

　　The young and strong Sarkaz accepted the order.

　　It's just that his heart is a little complicated.

　　This time, it was Theresis who bowed to his sister, but it also meant that Kazdel would be unified again.

　　As for those indescribable insects, he couldn't comment on them.

　　When the Zerg became their enemy, the Sarkaz could only feel fear and despair.

　　But when the Swarm becomes his companion...Kazdel is fearless.

　　To be honest, Manfred was somewhat relieved.

　　Princess Theresa chose to join the Zerg instead of... fighting them to the end.

　　The swarm of insects that appeared in Kazdel was completely different from the endless swarms of insects in the past.

　　They are more dangerous, more powerful, and more irresistible.

　　Even the Overlord of the Swarm has arrived.

　　The underground insect nests are also larger and more complete.

　　Compared to the endless insect swarms in the past—

　　It's like a defective product.

　　There is absolutely no imaginary door.

　　They did not descend from another dimension, but seemed to... exist here inherently.

　　Even though the Demon King led the Sarkaz to join the Zerg Hive, Manfred still had some unspeakable emotions.

　　Maybe it's fear, maybe it's relief.

　　If it weren't for Her Highness Theresa's actions -

　　So what will I and others encounter?

　　What will become of Kazdel's fate?

　　Manfred refused to think about the dark future that was no longer possible.

　　“…”

　　Theresis stared into the distance.

　　Kazdel now needs to recuperate and wait for the swarm to expand to any place in Kazdel.

　　And Theresa will also lead the Sarkaz of Kazdel to officially join the Zerg.

　　Before that—

　　It must not be discovered by neighboring countries.

　　The Regent's eyes were unusually calm.

　　He was thinking about how to make a big news.

　　"Victoria..."

　　During the civil war, Theresis never gave up collecting intelligence on other countries.

　　Victoria, with its turbulent political situation, might be a suitable place to attract attention.

　　The dukes had ulterior motives and appeared to be united but were actually at odds with each other.

　　And some dukes—

　　He had been invited.

　　Now, it's time to think about it.

　　He was responsible for attracting the attention of the various countries on Terra and buying time for Theresa.

　　…………

　　"It's unbelievable that we won..."

　　Sitting in the off-road vehicle, Closure had an unreal feeling.

　　This civil war ended just like that.

　　Although Kazdel will continue to be in a state of [Civil War], the work of reconstruction and development can already be prepared.

　　The great engineer found it a dream.

　　The Demon King returned from the dead, but won the battle with incomprehensible powers.

　　She couldn't help but touch the head of the little guy in her arms.

　　Well, I'd better rub the little guy down and calm down.

　　“Gah!”

　　A springtail that was randomly hugged was flapping its wings, with the corners of its mouth stretched out as if it was smiling.

　　"We won, Closure, but we still have to keep it a secret."

　　Theresa hugged Zerg.

　　She touched the child's head in her arms and helped him adjust the angle so that he could sleep more comfortably on the soft pillow.

　　After Zerg conducted a series of experiments with her cooperation, he fell asleep.

　　According to the instructions of the queen and infected insects——

　　The Overlord had consumed too much energy in the previous series of actions and only needed to replenish his energy and rest.

　　Therefore, the Demon Girl took on this task without hesitation.

　　"Qui'saršinnag, do you want to say something?"

　　The demon girl noticed the pardoner girl who was hesitant to speak.

　　"… Your Highness Theresa, I want to go back. There is someone who needs my help."

　　The Civil War is over.

　　But Liz is still in the Confessarii's lair.

　　Qui'saršinnag was worried about her condition.

　　But her journey home should be smooth.

　　Theresis and Theresia reconciled, and she, who was supposed to be a traitor, no longer had to worry about being attacked by the Regent's soldiers.

　　"If you need my help, just tell me."

　　The devil smiled.

　　She could sense the emotions of the pardoner girl——

　　Uneasy, guilty...

　　Very strange emotion.

　　"…Your Highness, I need Zerg to come with me."

　　Liz's health is not good.

　　Treating the Sarkaz caused her to gradually lose the feeling of her legs.

　　Before I left home——

　　Liz was able to move only with the help of a cane.

　　If we take Zerg with us, we might be able to help Liz.

　　"good."

　　Theresa pinched the little child's face reluctantly.

　　Since Qui'saršinnag needs Zerg's help, let Zerg go with her.

　　The Demon King is not some possessive bad woman.

　　A qualified queen should have a broad mind.

　　I have to thank a few people for this battle.

　　Closure said that a girl named Kiana Kaslana used an unknown space Originium technique to snatch her body back from the battlefield.

　　And she fed her a very powerful potion, which repaired her body.

　　Unfortunately, before I could properly thank the girl, Kiana left in a panic, as if something bad would happen if she was too late.

　　Thank her properly next time you see her.

　　Theresa thought so.

　　And Skadi——

　　On the front battlefield, it was Skadi who held back Theresis, preventing the battle line from being torn open, allowing the Doctor to hold on until she was resurrected.

　　However, the Deep Sea Hunter was in another car, and seemed to be talking to Kal'tsit and the Doctor.

　　Just don't bother her.

　　Well, the one who is driving now is... W.

　　"You're going to take Zerg away from Babel's team?"

　　W, who was driving the SUV, turned her head.

　　I don’t know why—

　　Her tone was somewhat excited.

　　"Um."

　　Qui'saršinnag nodded.

　　This is her business, but she needs Zerg's help.

　　Once Liz is rescued, she can consider when to offer herself.

　　The gods saved her without asking for anything in return, and as an apostle, she could not be ungrateful.

　　"Then I'll go too. It's a good opportunity to make my mercenary group famous."

　　Well, as to what the actual purpose is, I can only say that those who understand will understand.

　　Silly Kiana returned to her world, and it seemed that she was going to school tomorrow.

　　I don’t know what Kiana’s mood is now?

　　W, who had never been to school, couldn't help but imagine.

　　…………

　　St. Freya Academy.

　　Kiana Kaslana hurried back to her own world.

　　She grabbed the alarm clock from the bedside table.

　　The time displayed above made the white-haired ball feel like it had been hit hard -

　　The time showed that it was already past seven in the morning.

　　When she left, it was still evening, but when she came back it was already morning!

　　It’s over. I haven’t had a good rest after the war!

　　What to do?

　　Kiana Kaslana was anxious.

　　She was afraid that she would fall asleep on the desk during class.

　　If Theresa knew, she would definitely be very angry——

　　Then I won’t tell her the whereabouts of her stinky father.

　　"What should I do? What should I do?"

　　The white-haired ball was pacing in her own bedroom.

　　After the battle in the other world ended and she returned to her room, Kiana Kaslana already felt a strong sense of fatigue.

　　Mainly spiritual.

　　etc.

　　The white-haired ball came up with a good idea.

　　I had promised to let my sister use her body to get some fresh air.

　　It seems like this can be done.

　　She went back to rest while her sister was responsible for attending class.

　　Perfect!

　　Kiana Kaslana thinks she's a genius!

　　How could there be someone as smart as her?

　　"Sister! Sister!"

　　The white-haired ball called out to his sister.

　　"Are you going to give up your body to me?"

　　My sister's proud voice rang out.

　　"Ahem, that's right."

　　Kiana Kaslana coughed lightly.

　　She had a better idea.

　　From now on, my sister will take literature classes and she will be responsible for the practical classes.

　　It perfectly fits the division of labor between the two sisters!

　　After all, my sister is too weak, it is better for her to study hard instead of fighting.

　　Otherwise, if I hadn’t been watching, my sister would have almost been hurt by that red-eyed guy.

　　From now on, fighting will be left to me, the older sister!

　　“…”

　　The Herrscher of the Void frowned, feeling that Kiana Kaslana had ill intentions.

　　However, her predecessor, Sirin, had only received junior high school education at most, and the Queen of the Sky could not imagine what bad things would happen if she came out for some fresh air.

　　"Sister, you can come out and get some fresh air now! I'm going to rest first!"

　　The white-haired girl's pupil color changed from sky blue to a golden cross.

　　“…It’s still not enough.”

　　The Herrscher of the Void, who had gained control of the body, felt another consciousness sleeping.

　　She frowned.

　　There is still not enough Honkai energy that can be controlled.

　　The Queen of the Sky has not forgotten where this place is—

　　The territory of the dwarf who was once beaten Sirin.

　　The Honkai energy she currently possessed was not enough to defeat the dwarf.

　　After being defeated so many times, the Herrscher of the Void learned to lie dormant.

　　“Tsk.”

　　It seems that I can't release the desire for destruction in my heart at will.

　　The Herrscher of the Void was very dissatisfied, but there was nothing she could do.

　　The situation is stronger than people.

　　If you don't want to be humiliated, you have to bow your head.

　　"Let's go out for a walk first..."

　　The Herrscher of the Sky raised her foot, intending to leave the idiot's room and go out for a walk to see if he could find any weaknesses.

　　Then--

　　“Boom boom boom.”

　　There was a knock on the door.

　　The red-haired Valkyrie walked in decisively.

　　"Kiana, it's time to get ready for class! I'll take you to get your textbooks and stuff."

　　Murata Himeko said so.

　　"?"

　　…………

　　After imagining Kiana's feelings for a while, W quickly started thinking about her own affairs.

　　Skadi was entangled in things she thought were more important, and seemed to want to rely on the Tower of Babel to find her companions.

　　And Qui'saršinnag is going to take Zerg out—

　　A seemingly innocent girl who is a pardoner is on her journey back home with a pure and innocent child to help someone.

　　How could this story be without her?

　　The Sarkaz girl licked her lips.

　　She didn't mind giving Qui'saršinnag a little benefit so that she would join her camp.

　　After all, Skadi is too strong. Even if she is beaten into W-chan, she may not be able to break through the defense.

　　However, Qui'saršinnag’s strength is not weak, at least she can fight with Skadi for a while.

　　People like this must be won over to the [Anti-Skadi Alliance].

　　Especially since she doesn't seem to have much experience.

　　W has been thinking about how to seduce Qui'saršinnag.

　　If it weren't for the fact that she couldn't monopolize Zerg under Skadi, who would be willing to share him with other women?

　　Well, I'll definitely give her the first soup, and I'll give the rest to Qui'saršinnag a little bit.

　　"Miss W is going too?"

　　Qui'saršinnag looked at the Sarkaz girl with some doubt.

　　"Of course. Zerg is my savior, so I must stay with him. I just gathered a group of mercenaries, so it's time to fire the first shot under the name of the Absolution Master."

　　W was smiling all the time and didn't seem to have any bad intentions.

　　"Qui'saršinnag, you can bring W with you, just as an extra assistant."

　　The Demon King looked at the Sarkaz girl with a half-smile.

　　W will not succeed.

　　She had this intuition.

　　"Okay, Your Highness Theresa."

　　Although one Zerg is enough, it is also okay to bring a W to be responsible for driving.

　　The pardoner girl made a decision quickly.

　　"So when are you planning to leave?"

　　Theresa asked.

　　"...Tomorrow morning."

　　After such a bloody battle today, Qui'saršinnag also felt tired.

　　She needed to rest up before returning to rescue Lizzie.

　　"Okay, then I'll have someone prepare an off-road vehicle full of fuel and supplies for you."

　　Theresa said so.

　　"Thank you for your kindness, Your Highness."

　　Qui'saršinnag thanked her solemnly.

　　"No need to thank me. This is the Demon King's help to a kind Sarkaz."
