This is why the demons don't want to see the Demon King.
In this back and forth, the Demon King ate monster food under various pretexts, the hero defeated the Demon King, and the monster farm accelerated its harvesting speed through the Demon King's power.
Only demons, especially high-ranking demons, died in a completely inexplicable way.
They were speechless. If someone really wanted to kill them, why would they use such an absurd reason?
A world where only demons are injured has come to pass.
They strongly suspect that they have been set up.
"What should I do? I really don't want to go. What if that demon king gets interested and wants to try the vampire duke's cooking?"
Of all the high-ranking demons present, the one they feared most was the vampire duke, since vampires were considered rare and high-class ingredients by gourmets.
This vampire grand duke was also educated; the library in his hometown had records detailing the specific process of his death.
They met the Demon King, but because the Demon King had the blood of the Lord of Gluttony flowing through his veins, they refused to accept the Demon King's rule.
He was instantly killed by the Demon King and taken to the kitchen to be dealt with.
The demon king was still muttering to himself, saying that even his ancestors had never tasted the demon race, and he absolutely had to try it.
The vampire lord was terrified and went to see their demon king. He went to see the demon today, and the food was prepared the next day.
"But given the current situation, it's just as dangerous for us even if we don't go..."
The Flame Demon was restless in its seat, feeling that not going over would be disrespectful to the Demon King.
Not going to see the Demon King is an operation that a high-ranking demon once attempted.
As for the outcome?
The Demon King was quite happy, since he didn't need to rack his brains to find a reason.
None of you have come to see me. Are you not loyal enough? What are you planning to do?
They can deal with those high-ranking demons directly, and because the demon authority has a way to lock the location of high-ranking demons, these guys will not escape death even if they run to the ends of the earth.
"Hey, hey, hey, Salen, say something! Have you demons considered what to do?"
"Well, I'm still thinking about that. I hope this demon king isn't some kind of tyrant."
The representative of the demon race, the great demon Saren, spoke with a hint of nervousness and apprehension.
As the financial manager of the Demon Council over the years, it has quietly accumulated a considerable amount of wealth through its own means.
For example, it even stole the lights from this conference room, forcing them to hold meetings in this dimly lit place.
The great demon hoped that this demon king loved money, so he could use money to buy life.
If you let it go, all that money will belong to the Demon King.
"Hey everyone, honestly, is it really meaningful for us to be arguing about this issue here?"
If you ask me, we should still go, even if it takes a bit longer on the road.
They say the roads around here are difficult to travel, and it will take them ten days to half a month to get there.
"What if the heroes arrive quickly this time? Maybe by the time we get there, the Demon King will already be defeated?"
Finally, it was the representative of the Undead who spoke, and among the many high-ranking demons present, it was the most composed.
After all, even if the undead were inspired by a certain ghostly giant skeleton and their cooking methods were included in recipes, they still have the fewest culinary options.
Other demons are all flesh from head to toe; they can eat their wings and cook their tails.
They are undead, and only one soul can be transformed into a candy bean, which not every demon lord likes.
So it wasn't that afraid.
"We'll play a delaying tactic, stall for time, and if the warriors are efficient this time, we might escape this calamity."
Even if the hero arrives late, the extra days we spend on the journey mean we can have fewer encounters with the Demon King.
