Rarugo Sea.
Of the countless islands on the beautiful sea, more than 80% of the land is unexplored.
Though shrouded in mystery,
it's a place filled with unknown creatures and plants,
a paradise with abundant resources like rare minerals.
Besides, ancient remains from early civilization have blended splendidly with nature.
I've come to this mysterious southern island for a short vacation...
Who am I kidding?
Come on. The demon army's foot race.
Ready, start!
Hey!
Wait!
Stop, Lili!
You brat.
In fact, Lili is heading to Rarugo Sea for a logistic mission.
Rarugo?
Why such a remote place?
The people of Rarugo and the demon army
have an inseparable fate.
I remember Rarugo
is where the dragon men live.
About 3,000 years ago,
the Demon King, Belial invaded the human world.
After losing the battle, the demons who stayed
reconciled with the humans
and built a diverse community.
The dragon men were one of the races.
But humans started to harm the dragon men.
In the end, they both could not live in harmony.
That's why they went into hiding in Rarugo.
That's right.
The horrible past
has been passed down from generations.
But they welcomed Demon Queen Echidna's invasion.
Because of their generous support and assistance,
the demon army managed to keep fighting in the human world.
You can say that Rarugo is the lifeline of the demon army.
I see. I didn't know that.
The dragon men.
It's not easy to let go of that hatred.
I understand now. In that case,
I'm also supposed to go to Rarugo to help with the supplying process?
Yes.
The food and resources in the castle are running out.
She mustn't fail in this purchase.
Things are worse than I thought.
Not only that,
this is the proposal submitted by Lili.
Everyone must smile and have a good time!
Seriously?
To be honest with you, this is what she always does with her proposal.
They have enough men for their team.
But there isn't any progress with their work.
Isn't it better to ask for Edvard's help instead of mine?
Isn't he a dragon-man from Rarugo?
He must be familiar with that place.
We can't do that.
He is in charge of protecting the castle.
It's fine. Let me do it.
I will carry that, too.
That one, too.
If we send Edvard over, he will do everything by himself.
In that case, Lili won't get to learn anything.
So, you want me to keep an eye on Lili?
Yes.
I can't believe I have to babysit in the demon army.
Fine. I'll have to do it
if I want to be accepted into the demon army.
Thank you, Leo.
Without further ado,
you can travel to Rarugo through...
Don't get lonely while I'm gone in the meantime.
Get ready for departure right now!
Is she really a succubus?
That is why
I came to Rarugo.
Hey, Lili!
Stop it!
Go!
I'm telling you to stop!
I'm the first!
Congratulations to the first runner up too.
The second and third runner up did a good job, too!
Lili, play time is over.
I wasn't playing.
What?
I called for a race
to see who can bring the materials the fastest.
Excuse me...
What is it?
These are all we brought over.
That's okay.
One trip will do?
That's all for today.
Go ahead for tea time!
Leo!
Look, you will feel energized by drinking this.
All right.
Here. Open your mouth.
Thank you.
You're welcome.
At this rate, they won't be able to finish their job.
The portal to the demon city and Rarugo has been set up on this island.
The material storage is well-maintained as well.
If we can make use of the traits of each race
and put them in the right place,
they can finish their job within two days at most.
But first, we have to make good use of their traits.
Leo, give this a try. It's good, too.
I'll pass.
I'll give it to the rest, then.
Hey!
Take these carrots.
Thank you.
Um, who is that guy over there?
Let me introduce. That guy over there
is my husband, Leo...
Hey!
I am the Onyx the Dark Knight.
I'm not married yet.
Make sure to come to our wedding...
That's out of the question!
Gosh. If that's so...
Hey. You guys.
Please get that spot fixed immediately.
What did you say?
A change of work requires the superior's signature and stamp.
Superior...
Darn it. I can't do anything while I'm on the probation.
The islanders are already making lots of complaints.
I'm sorry. I deeply apologize.
I'm sorry... I'm so sorry.
Well, here's a little present for you.
If this continues, will short supply come first,
or the dragon men terminating the collaboration come first?
Either way, the demon army will be ruined in no time.
I'm back.
Leo, what happened?
Are you feeling unwell?
Do you want to have this?
Do you want to lie down here?
My head hurts.
That's bad!
No, it's not actually hurting.
Medicine! Who has medicine?
Medicine!
- But she is a good kid. - Does anyone has medicine?
Help!
Have the materials from Rarugo arrived?
Well, we haven't received it yet.
I see.
Is the task too difficult for a kid like her?
Lili is one of the Elite Four.
Besides...
The army is destroyed.
Most of the facilities in the castle have been wrecked.
But during the fight with Hero Leo,
not a single death was reported.
Which means, he didn't go all out with us.
We put everything we had at stake
for that battle.
But it was just a game for him.
What kind of Demon Queen am I? How miserable.
Queen Echidna.
Echidna-chan!
I found this at the entrance.
I'm giving it to you.
Oh, right!
Let's grow some flowers in the garden!
Shall we?
It will be beautiful!
You're right. Thank you, Lili.
I am sure Lili understands our situation.
I hope so.
Does anyone have medicine?
If anyone has some, can we trade it for this?
I beg you!
- But she is just a child. - Please trade it with me.
- Unlike Shutina, she can't understand those principles. - Do you have medicine to cure headaches?
