“So…” (Grandma)

“Are you going to tell us about your legends?” (Maria)

Maria was thrilled to hear the story of their fight against the devils .

Others were also interested in the story .

“Calm down . That story is not worth mentioning . ” (Grandma)

“Really?” (Everyone else)

Everyone expecting to hear a thrilling story felt somewhat disappointed .

“What we are going to talk about is the story of devils of the past . ” (Grandma and grandpa)

It was not about their brilliant achievements, but everyone turned solemn when they heard the words “devils of the past” .

“The devils we killed were the same as the ones described in the story . They wanted to destroy everything . ” (Grandma)

“It seems their only aim is to destroy everything they encounter . ” (s.h.i.+n)

“The magic that came out of them made people feel that they hated everything in the world . ” (Grandpa)

“You’ll understand what we mean if you see them with your own eyes . ” (Grandma)

Everyone listened with bated breath to the story being told by grandma and grandpa who had once confronted the legendary devils .  

However, I haven’t read that book . Is there any description of devils in the book?

“There isn’t a detailed description in the story . ” (s.h.i.+n)

“Were devils full of hatred?” (Thor)

I tried to fathom what Thor meant . Alice, who seemed to be imagining the devils pouring  out magic power, slightly trembled with fear .

“We must defeat him . ” (s.h.i.+n)

“The devil is an unparalleled threat . ” (Grandpa)

Grandpa had told me about the subjugation of devils cursorily before .

Actually, grandpa thought a lot while he was fighting .  

“The devils that appeared this time also seemed to hate the empire . ” (Grandpa)

“The devils that were subjugated said that their aim was to destroy the empire . ” (Grandma)

The hatred .

We don’t know why the devils and Schtrom hate the empire .

However, according to the devils, Schtrom hated the empire so much that he vowed to destroy the Empire .

So grandma’s speculation that Schtrom had turned into a devil because of hatred was true?

“Yes . As Schtrom’s hatred for the empire has been dispelled, his long-term goal should also disappear . I don’t think he’ll bring harm to others for the time being . ” (Grandma)

Grandma said it while looking at everyone, especially August .

“However, every devil is full of hatred; Schtrom may begin to hate the whole world like the devils of the past did . ” (August)

“Yes . That’s what I am worrying about . The devils of the present may be different from the devils of the past, but they have something in common—the devilization . ” (Grandma)

The reason for devilization is that they are full of resentment . We shouldn’t relax our vigilance even if the devils are self-aware .

Because there have been only a  few cases of demonization, it was impossible for us to further explore the causes of demonization .

How upsetting .

“If I knew more about the demonization, I could prove my conjecture . ” (s.h.i.+n)

“What are you thinking of?” (Grandma)

Hearing my complaint, grandma and grandpa became lost in thought .  

“Do you know who the “humans” that became devils in the past are?” (s.h.i.+n)

I asked .

“I don’t know . ” (Thor)

“It was not mentioned in the story . ” (Yuri)

According to Yuri, there seemed to be no details about the devil in the story .

“It is because the Magic Division of Earls.h.i.+de concealed the information from us . ” (Grandma)

“So we can’t figure out who turned into devils . ” (s.h.i.+n)

“They concealed the information?” (Thor)

Thor seemed to have caught onto something .

So did I .

People who turned into devils in the past were…

“The magicians in the Magic Division of Earls.h.i.+de . ”

Everyone also seemed to notice it and started to discuss it with each other heatedly .

“Is that so? Your Highness?” (Maria)

“Well, it’s the first time I’ve heard about it . ” (August)

August answered Maria’s question .

It seemed that Uncle Dis hadn’t talked about it .

If their own magicians turned into devils, the Magic Division would conceal the truth .

But .

“What’s wrong, s.h.i.+n?” (August)

“No, I’m wondering if it’s necessary to conceal it so desperately . ” (s.h.i.+n)

While I was wondering, grandma told us the reason .

“The magicians who turned into devils were as brilliant and powerful as Merlin . ” (Grandma)

“As brilliant and powerful as Lord Magi?” (Maria)

“How powerful they were!” (Thor)

Maria and Thor was stunned by grandma’s words .
