As the youngest leader of the Minotaur Clan, Ta inevitably had to endure the dictates of the Clan's respected elders, just like the new Brown Patriarch of the Midget Clan.

So after seeing this scene in front of him, Ta subconsciously thought of the scene when he sat on the main seat and faced the accusations of the elders, and then couldn't help but have a thought in his heart.

Maybe I'll ...... in the future Should these elders be treated with a tougher attitude?

Of course, now was obviously not the time to think about these trivial matters, so Ta quickly gathered his thoughts and began to think about the intentions of Dio and the others.

But no matter how much Ta guessed, he couldn't guess Dio's purpose.

Just when Ta began to think about something with a distressed face, Old Barton glanced at him and said decisively: "Before talking about those serious things, can I ask Your Excellency a question?" ”

Old Barton lowered his posture so low that it immediately aroused Dio's vigilance. He sat up straight and said with a smile on his face, "Of course." ”

"What I want to know is, is this one who appears with you the one in the legend of my clan?"

Turning his head to look at Asterius Old Barton, a faint glint flashed in his eyes. After seeing the scene just now, the elder Barton decisively gave up the idea of a positive hard anus, and began to play the emotional card instead.

"If the legend of your people is the one we know, then my answer is...... That's right! He is the one you worship! ”

The old god Dior, who had seen through everything, said.

As soon as these words came out, the other elders next to them couldn't help but whisper. And even the elder Barton, who had already estimated it, subconsciously looked at Asterius with a gaze full of reverence.

Regardless of whether the two sides have the same position or not, the identity of "Minotaur" alone is enough for Asterius to successfully gain the respect of the Minotaur. After all, the "Minotaur" is the ancestor of their minotaur clan.

However, despite believing Dio's words in his heart, Old Barton raised his confusion at the first time: "However, the image of this person does not match the legendary one of our clan." ”

Old Patton's words were actually very euphemistic, because at this time, Asterius could not find anything in common with "Minotaur" except for the pair of horns on his head and the abyssal double-edged axe on his back.

"Isn't that normal?"

After listening to Old Barton's words, Dio was very surprised and said, "I'm a human being, I can't really wander around the streets with a minotaur, right?" ”

"Uh......"

Old Barton, who didn't understand, blinked in confusion, but before he could ask, Dio explained on his own.

"So after signing a contract with him, I expressed my hope that he could walk in this world more like a normal person, and he agreed."

"Also, I want you to call him Asterius instead of just Minotaur, that's not good, really!"

"As for why he became the way he is, of course I did it. I don't have a lot of talent in magic, but I can do it. ”

When he said this, Dio also shrugged his shoulders deliberately.

"I see......"

Old Barton nodded thoughtfully.

Although it is not as common as the devil to make a contract with humans, the demon clan has made many contracts with certain people. Of course, unlike the demons who are always thinking about taking away the soul of the contractor, most of the demons who only think about fighting are just trying to change the battlefield and change their mood.

Because they have almost no brains, these demons are often pitted by their contractors. For example, if you are summoned by some witches, it turns out that it is not for the sake of fighting, but for the witches to study the body structure and spell-like abilities of the demons......

As the ancestor of the Minotaur clan, the legendary "Minotaur" actually had the experience of being summoned by some evil magicians. And from a certain point of view, in addition to the "Minotaur", among the strong men of the Minotaur clan here, it is estimated that only the tower as the leader is qualified to sign a contract with Dio. After all, as a strong Dior, the enemy he has to deal with will certainly not be a weak one, so the Minotaur who is not strong enough is naturally not qualified to become Dior's summons.

It's just that his own ancestor suddenly became someone else's thug or something, which made old Barton always feel that something was wrong in his heart.

At this time, the old Barton did not know that although Dio did not tell half a lie, he had just pit him into a ditch.

For example, "walking as a normal person" or something, Dio did say this to Asterius, but he was referring to the fact that Asterius's current dress is seriously outdated.

Except for a certain perversion, no one in the three major countries would go out wearing only a pair of baggy pants like Asterius. Even the barbarians and berserkers who don't like to wear more clothes will wear a cuirass or something, and at worst they will wear a heart guard.

Therefore, in order to prevent Asterius from being regarded as a pervert, Dioco discussed the issue of clothing with him very seriously, and successfully persuaded Asterius.

By the way, Asterius didn't actually mean to wear it this way, but he didn't have any other clothes other than this pair of pants and the cloak on his back......

In addition, Dio also quietly concealed how he turned "Minotaur" into the current Asterius. After all, the existence of the will of the four archangels led by "Michael", Dio does not intend to reveal it to anyone.

After making Dio talk for a while, Old Barton, who had been fooled, quickly believed Dio's statement. After all, the pair of blood-red horns on Asterius's head will not be fake, and Asterius emerged from that labyrinth, so the leaders and elders of the Minotaur clan naturally agree with the identity of Asterius.

They looked at Asterius with great eagerness.

Unfortunately, Asterius didn't have much of an eye for the Minotaurs like Tower and Old Barton. From the point of view of his bones, Asterius still considers himself a person, not some minotaur, and naturally does not have any so-called intimacy with these monsters with bull heads.

However, Asterius' attitude did not cause the minotaurs to be dissatisfied. Just from what happened just now when Asterios lowered the Abyssal Double-Bladed Axe, these minotaurs recognized Asterius' strength. Even if Asterius is not from their Minotaur clan, the demons who worship power will not be too disgusted by such a strong man, not to mention that Asterius is still their nominal ancestor.

"Alright, let's stop the chat."

After old Barton had chatted with Dio and Asterius for a while, Ta knocked on the table and said solemnly. And as soon as Ta's words came out, the rest of the people also became solemn.

"I just want to know now, you came to us...... What exactly is the purpose? ”

Looking directly into Dio's eyes, Ta asked seriously.

"As I said before, I didn't come here with hostility."

After glaring back at the pair of bull's eyes in the tower, Dio, who was holding his hands on his chest, said coldly: "You know, my strength alone is enough to inflict some fatal losses on you. ”

As he spoke, Dio also looked at the bandaged part of the tower, which meant for itself.

This immediately silenced the demons, including Ta.

Although this fact made them feel very embarrassed, but in the current demon residence, there is indeed no strong person who can compete with Dio.

"However, I am not here this time on behalf of the tripartite alliance of humans, dwarves and gnomes, but only on the side of our United Kingdom of Malt."

After suppressing the minotaur's momentum, Dio gave them a chance to relax.

"Stands for...... Those magicians. ”

Old Barton, who had smacked something out of Dio's words, had a gleam in his eyes again.

It's a pity that he still doesn't know that Dio at this time is actually fooling them. As an emissary, Aisha may have the qualifications to represent the Flame Grand Duke Karene and even the United Kingdom of Malte, but Dio, as the guardian of the Heroic Spirit, is really just a force force......

"We in the United Kingdom of Malte are not really interested in what you are doing in this underworld. What really made us curious were the rumored creatures of the Void. ”

As he said this, Dio lowered his head slightly, hiding the look on his face.

"What is so special about those void creatures that makes you ready to hide in this underground world?"

was asked so bluntly by Dior, and all the high-level demons, including Ta, changed their faces. But just when the pale-faced old Barton wanted to say something, Ta suddenly stretched out his hand to stop the old Barton.

"Actually, it's not a secret anymore."

After sighing, Ta slowly explained, "When you come into contact with those void creatures, you will naturally know this. ”

"That's ......"

"Those strange void creatures love to run where there is light."

(Running to a place where there is light, the so-called phototaxis?) ）

Dio blinked subconsciously, but didn't mean to interrupt Ta's words.

"After some discussion with the wise people among the devils, the wise men of our demon clan believe that those void creatures should simply like this world with all kinds of colors. Because it is said that in that so-called void, there is nothing but the mysterious void energy. There was no light, no matter, there was really nothing but that terrible void energy, and there was darkness everywhere. ”

"So after coming to our world, those void creatures liked places where there was light and could see the world clearly, and they were very disgusted with those places in the dark."

"Of course, that's just a little disgust, but the Void creatures are better at moving in the dark than we do. It's just that they prefer to do things in a bright place than in a dark place. ”

"With that in mind, we intend to take this underworld. Because if you block the passage, the long, dark passage will make the void creatures lose interest in the underworld......"

After hearing Ta's explanation, Dio's face did not show any joy, but his eyes narrowed slightly. Because of what Ta said, and the tone of his voice, Dio instantly understood that the current situation of the Demon Alliance was probably very bad.

It's so bad that these belligerent demons in the rear are a little disheartened.

It's no wonder that the discipline of the soldiers of the other demons in this place of residence has become so bad. Because of the order of the Demon Realm, I'm afraid it's already on the verge of collapse.

Therefore, at this time, although Dio obtained quite important information from the mouth of the tower, he could not have any joy in his heart, because the words of the tower had brought Dio a very big sense of crisis.

(Did the Lord send me into this world to solve this crisis?) ）

The index finger of his left hand lightly touched the table, and Dio, who was holding his chin with his right hand, began to think with his eyes closed.

Noticing Dio's gesture, Asterioston straightened his back and stared at the rest of the people present. If anyone tried to interrupt Dio's train of thought, Asterius would have done so.

Seeing Asterius' attitude, Tower and Old Barton were wise to remain silent, and they were also curious about what Dio was thinking.

(Judging from the attitude of the demons, they obviously have no way to resist the invasion of those void creatures, so the scope of this void invasion is likely to be unprecedentedly large, and even large enough to threaten the safety of the El world.) ）

(The question is, what do Aisha and I have to do to change or even reverse this crisis in the face of such a big crisis?) ）

(Anyway, give me some obvious hints, boss...... ）

After a long sigh, Dio, who had actually vaguely groped for something, slowly opened his eyes.

The next moment, the words that came out of Dio's mouth immediately stunned Tower and Old Barton and the others.

"Let's stop the war for the time being."

After looking around at the demons present, Dio said solemnly.
