Chapter 305 – Suggestion

Invasion and defense; I’ve written down all sorts of patterns for either in my memo pad, but I lack a decisive military advantage to put any of them into practice.

The one I deem as having the highest chance of success would be me commanding the defense unit. In the past, we had battle lineups where I would participate in the defense as a combat force, but…to my regret, trial & error isn’t tolerated in this world where you trade lives for everything.

If I pass away, this second life, which has recently worked out pretty nicely for me, will literally turn into nothing and the death of my excellent subordinates would directly lead to a weakening of the Aster Empire…

In this situation where the land is ruled by a few, powerful entities, the weak are devoured by the strong.

Having said that, it’s a foolish idea to stay an unrelated spectator. This choice is one that doesn’t allow any trial & error as demon king and ruler of the Aster Empire, but there exist options that would allow trial & error, too.

Would a failure go as far as weakening my influence? I guess I’ve got nothing to lose anyway, so I might try to talk it over with them.

I used my smartphone, opening 『Laplace』.

I’d like to make a suggestion. I’m going to post once more tomorrow at 8 p.m., so I’d like everyone, who can participate, to join the chat.

Unlike with mails or phone calls, a fluent communication through a forum only works if all the people you want to talk to are present.

The next day at 8 p.m.

21 Nameless Upper Class Demon King ID︰0536

It’s unclear how many people are reading this forum right now, but would it be alright for me to bring up my suggestion?

22 Nameless Upper Class Demon King ID︰0027

Yay lol

23 Nameless Upper Class Demon King ID︰0007

Please go ahead.

24 Nameless Upper Class Demon King ID︰0801

Yes

25 Nameless Upper Class Demon King ID︰0159

I’ll take the liberty to join in as well

26 Nameless Upper Class Demon King ID︰0077

Okaaaay

Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt

27 Nameless Upper Class Demon King ID︰0027

Oh! Everyone except for my eternal best buddy Sati is here, eh? lmao

28 Nameless Upper Class Demon King ID︰0013

Don’t fuck with me! Who’d be friends with a creep like you!?

29 Nameless Upper Class Demon King ID︰0027

Whoa lol I got Sati to say friend rofl

Thanks for the treat lol

30 Nameless Upper Class Demon King ID︰0536

It looks like everyone is present. You have my thanks for responding to my sudden call

31 Nameless Upper Class Demon King ID︰0007

Us upper class demon kings aren’t getting invaded under the current circumstances. So, what sort of suggestion is it?

32 Nameless Upper Class Demon King ID︰0536

First off, let me make clear that my suggestion only affects two people here directly. So please allow me to apologize for it being a suggestion that doesn’t matter to many of you.

33 Nameless Upper Class Demon King ID︰0077

Heeeh. So why did you call out to those unrelated as well?

34 Nameless Upper Class Demon King ID︰0536

To put it simply, for the sake of maintaining the current nature of our relationship. So far as it goes, you could call it sincerity, if you so wish.

35 Nameless Upper Class Demon King ID︰0077

What do you mean?

36 Nameless Upper Class Demon King ID︰0536

Currently the nature of our relationship can be labeled as good. Openly talking about things rather than a part of the members here secretly colluding with each other avoids unnecessary misunderstandings, correct?

37 Nameless Upper Class Demon King ID︰0007

That is a wonderful way of thinking.

38 Nameless Upper Class Demon King ID︰0027

So, I got all that about sincerity and so on, but what’s that suggestion of yours? It’s a suggestion by the Creation King. It’s okay for me to get my hopes up, right? lol

39 Nameless Upper Class Demon King ID︰0536

I don’t know whether I’ll be able to meet those hopes, but the demon kings related to my suggestion are Nina and Sati.

40 Nameless Upper Class Demon King ID︰0013

Hah? Why am I being lumped together in one boat with that idiot!?!

41 Nameless Upper Class Demon King ID︰0027

It’s because we’re eternal best buddies, no? roflmao

42 Nameless Upper Class Demon King ID︰0007

Is it because of the location?

43 Nameless Upper Class Demon King ID︰0536

Correct. It’s just a suggestion, but Sati, Nina, won’t you invade human land together with me?

44 Nameless Upper Class Demon King ID︰0013

Gifu, eh?

45 Nameless Upper Class Demon King ID︰0027

I’m happy that you’ve invited me, but I can’t get on board with this suggestion.

46 Nameless Upper Class Demon King ID︰0013

Oh? You’re chickening out?

Saburo! Let’s just ignore the coward and launch an attack with the two of us!

47 Nameless Upper Class Demon King ID︰0536

By the way, what would be the reason for your refusal, Nina?

48 Nameless Upper Class Demon King ID︰0027

It’s not like I’m saying it’s premature, but I fear that our advantage would fall apart. Moreover, there are other worrying factors in play here

49 Nameless Upper Class Demon King ID︰0013

Worrying factors? Don’t be so evasive and just say that you’re scared

50 Nameless Upper Class Demon King ID︰0536

With advantage you mean the nature of our relationship aka our presence here?

51 Nameless Upper Class Demon King ID︰0027

Yes. Humans aren’t idiots either. If we invade them simultaneously, they might realize our connection. If they find out that we use the Internet as a means to stay in touch, it’s quite possible that the government will shut down the network altogether.

52 Nameless Upper Class Demon King ID︰0077

But, the administrator of this site seems somehow pretty awesome, so won’t we be okay either way?

53 Nameless Upper Class Demon King ID︰0027

I wonder? Administrator! You’re reading the chat, aren’t you? How about you tell us the answer?

54 Nameless Upper Class Demon King ID︰0000

It is just as ID0027-sama says, if humanity abandons the network, it will become impossible to maintain this place.

55 Nameless Upper Class Demon King ID︰0007

But, the current society can’t detach itself from the Internet. All the more so, if it comes to humans who can’t use alchemy.

Do you think humans would freely give up on the Internet?

56 Nameless Upper Class Demon King ID︰0027

Even as we speak, they’re enforcing a large-scale information lock-down. If they feel their lives as humans are in danger, they’ll even abandon the Internet, I think.

57 Nameless Upper Class Demon King ID︰0159

There’s another cause for concern.

It’s not about the thing Saburo-san mentioned at first, but if the Gifu prefecture will be ruled by three people, I’ll opt to leave this forum.

58 Nameless Upper Class Demon King ID︰0801

I see! There would be the danger of them conspiring behind our backs! In that case, it’d be better for me to leave as well, wouldn’t it?

59 Nameless Upper Class Demon King ID︰0007

I would like to trust you all, but I cannot deny the danger of that happening.

60 Nameless Upper Class Demon King ID︰0013

So, you lot are saying we should let the humans do as they please? Or what? If Saburo and I rule over Gifu, two are going to drop out from here? Isn’t that great? Just bring it on! Yeah! Saburo! I’ll go along with your suggestion!

61 Nameless Upper Class Demon King ID︰0536

I apologize for the confusion caused by my suggestion and I thank you for your trust, Sati.

Still, would you be as kind as to listen to my suggestion to the end?

I created a new stir in the thread that had been plunged into chaos.
