At the venue prepared for the Demon King's Feast, half of the "Ten Demon Lords" including Ramiris, Guy, Milim, Dagliel, and Valentin have entered the venue.
They all have their own ways of exuding majesty, and although some of them are a bit stupid in their ways, the atmosphere in the entire venue becomes increasingly uncomfortable.
Until the lazy guy whom Rimuru got acquainted with during this time arrived.
The next person was Dino, who walked in lazily and alone, stumbling like a loser. He seemed to want to say hello to Ramiris first, but when he saw Ramiris's appearance, his eyes widened and he said: "
Good morning, how long has it been since I last saw you getting fatter?"
"What does it mean to be fat? Are you looking for a fight with Dino, the three-legged cat? Don't try to sleep through this meeting!"
"You actually stopped me from sleeping, Ramiris, have you turned into a devil?"
"Hey, Guy, Dino said I turned into you."
"Ah! You want me to go to hell!"
"Rimuru has several ghosts under his command. You can go and see them if you want. Anyway, I won't let you do whatever you want this time!"
"A mere former Fairy Queen! I will never surrender to a tyrant!"
"Hey, 'Tyrant of Destruction' Milim, Dino said he doesn't obey you, come and teach him a lesson with me!"
"Ahhhhhhhhhhhh!"
"…………"
They quarreled with each other for more than ten rounds like bad friends who had known each other since childhood. After Dino realized that no matter what, he was asking for trouble, he simply ignored Ramiris's call and yawned and went to his seat.
After that, there were no longer anyone who needed to be there to pay attention to. Leon, Frey, Kallion, and Clayman entered the room one after another with their entourage.
If there is anything we should pay attention to, it is that the figure of the winged beauty Frey brings is really... It is better not to harass her. But if it can make Shion jealous and kick open the coffin board, he will be happy to take a closer look.
Rein acted as the master of ceremonies and registered the demon kings present one by one. Finally, "Rimuru Hekatia Tempest" was listed among them. Rimuru breathed a sigh of relief. It seemed that he was the demon king.
It was indeed recognized.
Then, as the host, you have to fulfill your responsibilities. Rimuru stood up and said: "Today, I am grateful to everyone for being invited to attend the meeting. Then, let's start hosting our feast. I declare that the Demon King's Feast is officially opened."
He sat down, with a dangerous feeling in his heart. At first, he almost said "seniors" when referring to the "Ten Demon Kings". Although the seniority is indeed the same, in this circle where strength is respected, one still needs to be somewhat domineering.

Then, he brought up the issues of this feast centered on him. There are two main points:
First, he became the Demon King because four of the "Top Ten Demon Kings" jointly promoted the Pig-Head Tribe's invasion of the Jura Forest. No matter what their original purpose was, they may have wanted to directly tame the fledgling new Demon King and make him a subordinate.
To increase his sphere of influence, he may have wanted to join the gang and increase his voice. However, the result was that the pig-headed demon king failed and Rimuru became the demon king. He did not intend to surrender to any demon king and was willing to get along with each other as equals. If there was any dissatisfaction, he would let him go.
Second, the "Ten Demon Kings" and the Western countries currently maintain a delicate balance. This balance has been broken by humans' active attacks on the important people, residents, and territories of the Demon Kingdom. He wants to declare his preparations to counterattack.
but--
Hey, Dino, why did you really fall asleep while I was talking? It's very rude to eat my food without giving face. Could it be that Ramiris was making trouble just because of her? No way? Rimuru thought
.
After Rimuru finished speaking, Lei Yin said, "Then, next is the time for questions from all the guests."
Dagliel spoke majestically: "Rimuru, since you have become the Demon King, established a country, and been recognized, you should use your own strength to repel humans to prove that you are the one. Why are you looking to us?"
It is true that what Rimuru said is not a nutritious topic for most demon kings, but the main purpose of Rimuru's desire to have this demon king's feast is to show it to foreign countries, making them feel untouchable, delaying the progress of the crusade, and thus giving himself a
Buy preparation time.
But even if some people knew clearly, he couldn't say that. He replied: "Until not long ago, I didn't know that this world seems not to allow me to keep a low profile as the devil, so this is to show my existence and my value.
I believe you will be willing to communicate with me more soon, Lord Dagliel."
He had carefully requested his subordinates to investigate the information. He knew that Dagliel's territory had poor transportation and barren land. Even obtaining the most basic food required one's life. If he was willing to establish diplomatic relations, he could give them a glimpse of the Demonic Kingdom.
The efficiency of road construction and transportation have improved.
"Also, although I am at war with humans, my goal is to build a country where people can live a comfortable and happy life. I need help from humans, so I only plan to sanction human countries that actively oppose me. If anyone intends to fish in troubled waters and use war to further plunder
If humans put the blame on me and hinder my communication with humans, then no matter who they are, they are my enemies." He continued to express his ideals sonorously and forcefully in front of all the demon kings, which was also a warning.
After all, [Raphael, the King of Wisdom] said that the possibility is not small.
He used [Thinking Acceleration] to increase it to a million times, then turned on [Magic Perception], and observed the reactions of the demon kings. Maybe most of them were old guys who were used to making facial expressions, and he didn't see any of them wavering even for a moment.
The maid behind Lehman, Fleur and Valentine seemed to be relieved. It was just an atmosphere.
"It doesn't matter." Qi Yi said grandly, "Everyone here has the right to express their opinions freely."
At this time, Clayman stood up and said: "I have something to say. Not long ago, as a proof of the friendship between our country and the Demonic Kingdom, after the Demonic Kingdom was attacked by some countries and the Western Holy Church, I sent my men to investigate the enemy camp.
But unexpectedly, we discovered that the Demon King Valentine was in the church. The subordinates of the Demon King Claudius, who was being attacked by the Church, and my subordinates joined forces to expose the Demon King Valentine to the public near the church headquarters and defeated him.
."
As he spoke, he also took out the image captured by the crystal ball.
The image was of a man who was the same as the Demon King Valentine who was present. He fell from the sky in the direction of the main temple of the church to near the church headquarters, and then began to attack the people and church personnel. The camera of the brave Masayuki flashed for a moment, and then it passed too quickly.
, the "frame number" of the image was not enough, and the slow motion could not be seen clearly. Demon King Valentin, who was about to use his ultimate attack on Masayuki, was suddenly shot in the hand by an arrow and exploded on the spot. Then the explosion solidified and shattered, and he himself was killed.
A stream of light flew into the sky where its figure was almost invisible, and then it was hit by a big firework-like move and disappeared.
