*Clop* *Clop* *Clop*
The sound of hooves hitting the floor came to a stop. Gates to a Giant castle are slowly opening as Maids and servants rush out to greet us.
""Welcome back ""
Me and the Demonlord jump off the back of the Deer with well groomed facial hair, and land on the floor with a plop. The sunlight showcasing the wonderfully scattered mud on our bodies. Did I say sunlight? yes I did, oddly enough the strom passed just as we reached the castle, If the sky had lips I can imagine it silently mouthing 'Fuck you' with a smile as ugly as its personality. But that's beside the point.
The overgrown deer licks the side of my head leaving a large trail of saliva before it trots off disappearing into the forest where it damn well better stay there. I can see the guards that were with us glaring at the forest. You're all fired.
With a sigh, the DemonLord begins talking with a tired tone
"What do you want to do? we can do a quick clean up and continue introductions or we can clean up, eat and put off introductions until tomorrow?"[Demon Lord]
"What do you think we should name that Deer? Scruffles? Gerette Goatee? "
"What about flamingo? " [Demon Lord]
"But it's a deer "
" It's a codename" [Demon Lord}
"Now hold a minute, why would a deer need a codename?"
The guards looked confused as to when we became so chummy, while the maids awkwardly stood there.
"In Order to hide it's full name?" [Demon Lord]
"Which would be?"
"Gerette Goatee, the undercover detective."[Demon Lord]
"Ah. what about his family?'
" One son who is a dancer, and his wife was killed by the same criminal that killed his partner.A deer with a mission." [Demon Lord]
"You really thought this through.."
A case of content theft: this narrative is not rightfully on Amazon; if you spot it, report the violation.
"I was in too deep."[Demon Lord]
I shiver from a sudden breeze, being completely drenched in water didn't help either.
"Alright, I choose the first option, I rather get introductions out of the way."
with a nod, she turns to a maid and whispers something as I follow her through the gate.
----------------------------------------------------------
I'm sitting in a small Library. Well, small compared to what you would expect when you think 'Castle'. In the center of the room is a Table that could fit 4 people and all around the room are rows of Bookshelves with narrow pathways you can use to travel. There was one window in the room which was opened letting in a gentle breeze and sunlight. Finally, Besides the center of the room, the entire library gave off a cluttered feeling.
I changed into slightly baggy black pants and a gray shirt that was provided to me by a Maid. I still smell like sweat but at the very least I don't have saliva and mud on me anymore.
Suddenly the DemonLord walks in with two soldiers that are carrying a tripod and a couple of slides, the guards place them down and leave the room.
*Ahem*
"We are currently in U.D.A or the United Demon Alliance continent in the capital called Tartarus." [Demon Lord]
she points towards a slide
" we are currently at war with the humans. as you can see from this graph with x coordinate being time and Y coordinate being natural resources, after the humans reached a critical low it started affecting the population with large amounts of people dying from famine."
She removes a slide, revealing a map of the Human continent.
" This, of course, does not mean they do not have enough land to thrive. the kings forbidding to farm anywhere too far from extremely small zones they approve of calling everything else 'Land of the evil' limits their food production as well as inefficient methods and lastly war amongst themselves, with huge amount of farmable land they instead use as battlefields and buffer zones or lastly 'Holy zones' large pieces of land that they proclaim must not be used according to God. The lower class which held large amounts of skilled workers and producers keep dying, with vital workers gone their economy is slowly coming to a halt. The prices are rising, making it difficult for commoners to purchase basic necessities ."
She looks at me like she is waiting for me to digest what she is saying before continuing
"If you were a king and all of your subjects look at you with anger what would you do?"[Demon Lord]
hmm..
"I would blame someone else "
"Exactly. So in short, we are at fault somehow and now they are attempting to invade us for our resources"[Demon Lord]
"How long has this been going on ?"
"342 years "[Demon Lord]
So this war has been going on for generations but why wait until now to summon someone?
she removes the slide revealing the one behind it. It's several detailed drawings of gauntlets, swords, spears, crossbows.
" I know what you are thinking, the reason we did not summon someone earlier was because we didn't think the humans were going to summon one, 3 years ago. Through studying them they managed to make improved cheap magic weapons raising the fighting potential of their soldiers. we are being pushed back now."[ Demon Lord]
She bows
" I"m sorry for the trouble we caused you to go through but please help us"[Demon Lord]
One minute passes by with her remaining perfectly still
"ah....well....I'll think about it."
