Volume 2 217. On the eve of the war

Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    The kingdom has been in constant turmoil recently, and even the Demon King's Castle is having trouble finding peace.  Especially since the negotiations between vampires, dark elves and the Wolves of Disaster failed, and then the demon lord returned, the demon king who had been standing still finally began to take action.  The Demon King's City was like a gear turning overnight. The invited tribes accepted the Demon King's order and began to prepare intensely for war, and began to open the battlefield in order. Popelas, who has now taken over the authority of Marshal Barous, may  He may be the busiest person in the entire Demon King City. He has a mountain of military affairs on his head. The troops recruited from various tribes need to be inspected and registered by him. In addition, there are also the distribution of military pay and the dispatch of troops.  All kinds of things that kill and damage brain cells are arranged for him to deal with.  "I can't stand it anymore. Anyone can come and get rid of that wolf quickly." These were the exact words that Popelas complained to his two newly promoted assistants.  "No, now is the time to reflect your value, sir. No one is more suitable for your current position than you." Two capable assistants also responded to him with these words.  I have to say that although there is flattery in this sentence, it also appropriately explains the current situation. Unless Marshal Barous returns to power, or the Demon King deposes Popelas, such a laborious situation will not stop.  .  Tragedy.  Popelas leaned heavily on the chair in his office, looking at the pile of documents in front of him that were already stacked higher than a person's head. He really had the idea of ??overturning the table and running away.  Everyone rumored that he was deeply appreciated by the Demon King and that he was the number one person in charge of internal affairs after Barous. However, Popelas felt miserable in his heart. All he had gained so far was the title of Earl, and he had no real power at all.  , busy all day long dealing with logistics, not to mention leading troops to fight, there are so many generals in the kingdom who will never have the chance to go to war, unless someone personally leads the army to the Demon King's City - but can anyone?  It¡¯s not that he underestimated the wolf.  It's not that he ignores the devils who are having fun at the border. Don't think that the kingdom can't deal with them, but that the devil king behind the scenes doesn't exert any force at all.  After all, Popelas knew very well that the Demon King¡¯s ambition was not here at all. The seriously ill Marshal said, ¡°The Demon King¡¯s ambition is in that unconquered land, because there were failures. In fact, it inspired that feeling even more.  Will." Popelas felt that this was right. After all, the abyss today was far from what it was at the beginning of the founding of the country.  To put it another ten thousand steps back, even if the army really comes to the city, the one who conquers it personally is the Demon King. He will always be a handyman.  If I had known this earlier, I might as well have received a fiefdom outside.  At least he's a little more relaxed.  Poperas stopped the quill in his hand and his eyes stopped on a name, Demon Lord Railton.  Logically speaking, this name should not appear on the list of generals who are about to go on an expedition, because the old guy just came back from a serious injury not long ago, and even the Demon King gave him permission to train, but here comes the problem.  After all, the Demon Legion has always been a powerful force in the Kingdom of the Abyss, and it directly serves the Demon King. If he does not fight, there will be problems with the balance of combat power - in fact, Lord Railton has not really joined the battle for a long time.  Now, his existence is more of a deterrent effect, but now that the old soldier and the devil's army have suffered more than half casualties, they are temporarily replaced by a general.  Will the always proud demons obey this order?  After thinking about it, Popelas sighed and crossed out the name from the copy.  At this time, there was a knock on the door of his office.  ¡°Come in,¡± Popelas said.  Looking up, he saw his assistant walking in with a pile of documents. Popelas rubbed his eyes silently and sighed.  "Lord Popelas. This is a request for military rations today. Also, there will be a meeting about the Military Affairs Office at three o'clock." "I understand." Popeelas had to put down his emotions and said  As the saying goes, when a large army goes out for an expedition, food and grass go first.  This is indeed a priority. "Show me the requisition form first." The assistant obeyed and handed the form to Poperas.  "the 7th and 9th vampire legions, the 11th and 12th dark elves legions," Popelas muttered to himself as he stared at the document.  "Is there anything wrong, sir?" the assistant asked.  "Ah, no, it's nothing." Popelas shook his head, but he was full of doubts in his heart.  In fact, when Railton and others returned from serious injuries, Poperas once visited Railton. When he told His Majesty the Demon King¡¯s arrangements, the Demon Lord was extremely shocked. Recalling that, at that time,  He simply reported the follow-up of the incident, but at that time Railton¡¯sPopelas remembered the angry face beneath his wounds very clearly.  "The Demon King didn't punish the vampires and dark elves, so what happened to Famir and Zulfania?" If he hadn't been seriously injured and found it difficult to get out of bed, Railton would have jumped out of bed when he asked this question.  .  "The two of them are also here today. The Demon King did not express any opinions on the failure of the two of them to complete the task. The two of them no longer talked about persuading the Disaster Wolf. They should have reached an agreement in private"  "Agree?" Lord Railton said coldly, and then stopped talking. No matter how Popelas asked, the other party remained silent.  Popeelas knew that if this old guy didn't want to talk, even the Demon King could pry his mouth open, but this incident still made Popeelas feel strange. After leaving Railton's station afterwards,  He specially sent someone to inquire about the news, but soon the news that the Demon King asked him to focus on his own affairs reached him. Popelas understood that this was no longer his business.  No one knows what exactly happened in that battle, and what happened between the three lords Zulfanya, Famir and Relton. The whole incident is like a wisp of dust, all covered by this torrential  The heavy rain put it out.  "Lord Poperas?" the young assistant called softly, he was still waiting for Poperas' instructions.  Popelas came to his senses and said, "Ah, I was on a mission." He smiled mockingly and looked down the note, but the request letter clearly said "Demon Legion"  of words.  Poperas' eyebrows furrowed. He tapped the handwriting and asked, "What's going on?" "This is the devil's army." The assistant looked at Popeelas blankly, wondering.  What is this gentleman trying to ask?  "Of course I know this is the devil's army," Popelas's voice rose a little higher: "But didn't you check it when you counted it? The demon lord Relton is recovering from his injuries. This army is stationed in the Demon King's City.  "Why are they on the list of troops to go to war?" "This they have applied for war," the assistant said aggrievedly.  "What?" Popelas has never heard such a ridiculous thing. The general can only lie in bed and go out to fight. He looked at the anxious face of his assistant and felt that he was not lying, so he couldn't bear it.  He said calmly: "Then tell me what happened." "That's it, Lord Popelas, the demon army has temporarily changed its general." The assistant thought for a while and then said: "I heard that it seems to be the lord.  "My son is back." "Son?" Popelas was stunned and then responded: "Is it Gil-Iguesas?" Popelas and Gil were both in the military department, and the latter was actually transferred to the Lord's Castle.  The person who served was Marshal Barous. Poperas disagreed at the time because he had a very good impression of the young man Gil. The generals in the Abyss Legion were mainly brave like Railton, but they were good at fighting.  Not only are they highly capable, but they also rely on their brains to fight. There are obviously few such talents, so Popelas has always wanted to keep Gil in the staff, and has a vague intention of cultivating him as a focus.  Thinking of this, Popelas glanced at the nervous young assistant next to him. Although this young man was carefully selected by him from a group of young non-commissioned officers, he was too far behind Gil-Iguesas.  , if that young man were here, I believe that the headaches he needs to deal with would become much easier.  But to this day, Poperas also knows that he has nothing to regret. After all, Officer Barous is one level older than him, and if there is anything wrong with Gil, it is that his background is too high.  But since he is back, that old guy Railton must be very happy, and the candidates for the devil's expedition this time have been confirmed.  Just when Popelas was thinking so actively, his assistant interrupted his BOSS delusion with an embarrassed look: "Well, Mr. Popelas, although the person who came back is indeed the lord's son, he doesn't seem to be from the military department.  That Gil-Iguesas. "Ha, who is that? Is it the boss Victor?" But Popelas seems to have heard that he is stationed at the Lord's Castle. If he comes, then the daily affairs in the Demon Lord's territory will  Leave it to who to handle.  "No, it's not." The young sergeant became more and more nervous, even stammering when he spoke: "The one who went on the expedition in place of the demon lord Railton was his third son Lancelot Igusa  "Lancelot Iguesas?" Upon hearing this name, Popelas fell down on his chair, looking completely unacceptable.  After a long while, he asked: "Are you sure you didn't do anything?"???  "The assistant was obviously confused by Popelas' question. He confirmed and re-confirmed, and then nodded after feeling that there was no problem. "It's messed up, it's messed up, it's all messed up.  "That was the only sentence left in Popelas' mouth.
