[Demon's king Castle, Teleportation Hall, Demon's Continent]

Standing before the renowned four vassals of the demon king whom each resembles strength in their respective fields, one particular person clad in black armour that emits hazy mist purple aura

The black hair of that person coupled with his dead pan purple eyes that shows no signs of light, was really compatible with his donned black armour and purple aura

The signature mark that could describe such person is the huge crack on its cheeks, running down straight along its neck

Such person was named Hiiragi Asuto

At the moment that particular person was standing face to face with the four vassals of the Demon king

"What are you doing here Asuto-kun?" Asks Belial in a friendly manner

"Aren't you supposed to be somewhere else? I can't remember having you welcome us here" added Belial

After that silence permeated the room as Asuto scanned the whole room

Due to this Belial seemed quite uncomfortable as he squinted his eyes, but before he could follow up his words Asuto answered him directly without being formal

"The demon king has a task for the four of you... . ."

"!"

"!!"

"!!!"

Hearing his nonchalant unmannered way of talking Sirius the Supreme vampire, one of the four vassals begun to spoke up in a agitated tone

"Oi! Is that how you address the demon king? At least add some -sama to your words!" He pointed out

As he pointed this out Asuto continued what he says beforehand completely ignoring Sirius rant

"The Demon Jester was found hiding along with the humans of the former destroyed kingdom near the empire! It seems he's rilling it up there... . . He's actions are unneeded thus the Demon king found it as an obstacle to his plans... . . He wants the four of you to take care of its elimination... . . Permanently!"

When they heard that Larval who was standing by the side laugh inwardly as he seemed to found another new toy

"That Jester... . . I see he's still alive!" He murmured

"Wow! Even thought that he barely escaped from us last time, he's still has the audibility to hinder the Demon king's plan" praised Hepta

As they commented this Sirius himself says otherwise

"I understood what his majesty wants but... . . Why the four of us? Isn't that overkill?" Growled Sirius

"No it isn't! He proposed this as he remembers the failure of you guys capturing him in the past" replied Asuto

After hearing that even Sirius himself gritted his teeth

"You..."

But before he could pounce on Asuto himself, a hand smoothly blocked his path and that hand was none other from but Belial himself who is wearing a smile for some reason

"If that is what it takes to redeem ourselves then it is fine!" He replied

"Well then... . . I leave this matter into your hands" said Asuto

As Asuto said those words he then turned around and left the vicinity

After he left Sirius grabbed Belial's collar as he growled

"You dare!?!"

But instead of getting angry Belial replied to him by putting on a serious face which made even the supreme vampire himself flinch a little
