At the southernmost edge of the border of the Scysconian Empire lies a land shrouded in thick fog, known as the Bloodmist Wasteland.

Originally, this place also belonged to the territory of the Empire, but because the sudden appearance of the mysterious poisonous fog killed most of the creatures living here, the remaining ones who were not dead were also torn to pieces by the monsters that changed from the poisonous mist, and the blood stained the original pure white mist, turning this place into a dead place.

Unlike the invading fog of the merchant kingdom of Panda, the fog here is very peaceful, and even when the fog tide comes, they never step here, but only wander the land.

Some people speculated that these fog monsters were guarding something, but because it could not be confirmed, they eventually disappeared into history.

For humans, the fog here is deadly, and even magic cannot insulate the erosion of the fog, so it is naturally impossible to explore this land.

And when the fog tide comes, these fogs become fog monsters...... Although there were no poisonous surnames in the air at that time, dangerous surnames were even higher.

The mutation of the Fog Monster had happened a long time ago, and only a few of those countries were unanimously silent about it.

The mutated Fog Monsters are more dangerous, but they are also more rewarding, and Fox City is just one example of failure, and the dead soldiers are just numbers...... It may sound hard to believe, but it is.

"Miss Rix, there are mist monsters in there, so please take care of me here. ”

Rix nodded, silently opening the [Ode to Death] and began to summon the undead army.

"Come out, Al!" the summoning array flashed away, and a giant elephant-like wolf appeared.

This is the Jeep's demon, and although it is only a mutated wolf itself, it can use some magic after becoming a demon...... Of course, its main function is to be used as a means of transportation.

Due to the [Forbidden] relationship between the remaining demons of the demon race, as long as they do not take the initiative to provoke these fog tides, they will not be attacked, and Jeep himself is also a master of charm magic, so he went all the way to the deepest part of the wasteland.

What you see is a Jingguan made of countless dry bones, and the white flowers and bones are like a small mountain, which looks palpitating.

However, on the top of the Kyokan was a weapon with a pitch-black body and a blood-red magic pattern, and even if you looked at it from a distance, you could feel the power contained in that weapon.

"You can't be wrong, this aura of destruction...... It must be [World Destroying Demon Sword Laevatain]~!!" Jeep smiled, "As long as I can get this weapon, I will definitely be able to ...... Hmm!"

Syllable!

He suddenly slapped himself hard, and his eyes were full of emptiness.

Even the demons around him became a little manic, and the frightened Jeep hurriedly dismissed the Al from the summoning.

“...... Almost, almost fascinated by the demon surname emanating from this weapon. Jeep clutched his chest in trepidation.

[When I saw that weapon, I had the illusion that "as long as I can get that weapon, I am an omnipotent god", and Levatin is indeed a terrible weapon...... It's no wonder that this sword is the exclusive weapon of the demon kings of the past dynasties, and I am afraid that only the real demon kings can control this sword. 】

The magic in the body kicks in...... Gradually, that feeling of temptation disappeared.

Jeep, who is good at charming, can be immune to the "temptation" from the magic sword with a little attention. Maybe that's why the Demon King asked him to complete this task.

Climbed up the Jingguan built of white bones and came to the front of the magic sword, and at the moment when he stretched out his hand and was about to hold the magic sword, a voice spoke.

"Take your hands away, this is not a weapon you can touch. ”

It was a full-bodied bass, accompanied by the sound of metal clashing and approaching footsteps...... There was also the grinding sound of weapons unsheathed.

In the thick blood-colored mist, the vague human figure became clear from far and near.

It was a pitch-black armor with pale gold patterns, and its appearance was full of Gothic hideousness, and the nearly two-meter-long cross sword in his hand was dragged on the ground, making an uncomfortable friction sound. Most notably, however, is its helmet, which is not a human to wear, but more like the head of some kind of monster.

"Monster ......" The aura emitted by the other party made the Jeep, who was a demon, recognize it in an instant.

Jeep stopped drawing his sword and watched cautiously at the pitch-black armor in front of him.

It's not a demon, and it's not a demon like a dregs of mist...... It's the darling of the night with full self-awareness and power, a real monster.

[I didn't expect there to be monsters in the human world, I originally thought that monsters were already ...... I can't act rashly, the strength of the other side is unknown, and blindly starting a war will only make me fall into passivity. 】

The pitch-black armor raised its head slightly, and its golden eyes stared at the jeep who was still standing on the Kyokan, and then let out a questioning voice.

"You have an aura that is familiar to me, but you are not of my kind...... What the hell are you?"

Jeep replied calmly: "When we first met, I was Jeep, a young demon who had just reached adulthood for less than 30 years. ”

"Demon ...... What is that? I only know about monsters, and when did the demons pop up as little characters!?" the pitch-black armor snorted indifferently, and his tone seemed to be disdainful, "Now, get off that top, and get out!"

Jeep explained unhurriedly: "Please listen to me, I don't know how many years of sleep, we were a family hundreds of years ago. And I have no intention of getting my hands on it, because you and I know very well that there is only one person in the world who is qualified to use it. ”

Perhaps it had been too long since anyone had spoken to him, but the pitch-black armor did not immediately attack, but asked calmly.

"Interesting...... You said that hundreds of years ago we were a family? It seems that the so-called demons and monsters are inextricably linked?"

[Very good, that's it...... If you can really convince him to join the demon race, it must be a great achievement. 】

"It's a natural ......," Jeep explained with a smile, "because the monsters were originally the predecessors of the demons, and it is precisely because of the monsters of the past and the present that there are today's demons." Do you know why you are the only one here who is self-conscious, except for these fragments of incomplete consciousness?"

The pitch-black armor made a puzzled voice: "I don't know...... I've been asleep for a long time, and it's been like this since I woke up. What the hell is going on?"

Jeep sat down on the Kyoto Temple without any scruples.

"Because the story is a bit long, please listen to me tell you slowly. This starts more than a thousand years ago, after the demon king Garusis was sealed......"

Because of the severance of the blood of the demon king, the monsters fell into a leaderless state for a long time, and were hunted and captured by humans and other Homo sapiens races, and some weaker monsters were even raised as domestic animals, just for the demon core in their bodies.

Powerful monsters do exist, but they don't trust each other, and no one obeys anyone.

In the darkest period of the monsters, a powerful and intelligent monster appeared, and he subdued the demons who were fighting with absolute strength, and united them again.

However, the new Demon King was not ready to go to war with those Homo sapiens races again, and chose to leave.
