The Fifth Woman the Demon King
40 Eps. Making Strategy!

A dark cave on a hillside, which relied solely on the reflection of light from the gemstones on the cave walls as irradiation, became the place where Zeena and Xenos were currently located.

Zeena's eyes were unceasingly looking at every wall of the cave. The cave is indeed dark and looks quite scary, but the darkness actually makes the cave also look charming.

The light generated from the reflection of the gemstone light, made the cave like a night filled with hundreds of stars.

The Incandescent Star Woman was really very fascinated, "What beautiful place is this, Xenos?" muttered Zeena in amazement.

Xenos glanced at his master, he smiled faintly, "This is my nest, and this cliff is home to the manticore," Xenos replied.

"Here we will be safe, for there will not be a single demon who dares to come to this place. This place had a kind of shield that only a manticore could break through, as well as a figure who contracted with it. If any demons entered this place, they would die horribly!" xenos gave a little explanation.

Hearing all the words of Xenos, Zeena was relieved, because at least there would be no demons to harass them while there. They will both be safe to talk about the problems at hand.

"Are you able to sense the aura of my Star Incandescent Woman?" When the atmosphere between them began to be quiet for a moment, Zeena immediately raised a question to her magical beast.

Xenos was silent for a few seconds, then he looked like he was sniffing at Zeena, "After you say it, I became aware. Now I can no longer feel the aura of the Incandescent Star Woman from you!" exclaim Xenos with a look of surprise and panic.

However, Zeena looked ordinary, "Huft ...." Zeena let out a rough sigh, "It turns out to be true what that woman named Nathalie said!" said the Xenos Employer.

Zeena's words again confused Xenos, the vicious manticore scrunched his forehead, "So man, what exactly do you know, after infiltrating the demon king Astra's room earlier?" This time it was Xenos's turn to ask.

"There's a lot of information I've got, Xenos. First of all, Nathalie doesn't work alone, she works for someone she calls Her Majesty the Queen."

"Nathalie and the woman figure were planning to get rid of me, because they didn't want their plan to fail. But I don't know what plan he's referring to either."

"Then, she also said that she had bewitched me, making myself lose the aura of the Incandescent Star Woman I had."

"The five demon kings were also exposed to magic, magic that made them easy for Nathalie to control. It made the demon lords believe more in all things Nathalie, including her lies."

Zeena explained at length all the information she had obtained, from the results of eavesdropping on Nathalie in Astra's workspace. Xenos listened very carefully.

"But, how could he bewitch all five demon kings at once? The demon lords were not reckless demons and were easy to fool!" xenos said that felt there was a strange.

Zeena shook her head, while raising her shoulders. "I don't know about that either. But most likely, Nathalie bewitched the five demon lords at the same time, and place. Because if it was different, it must have raised the suspicion of the other demon lords." Zeena expressed a bit of her perception.

"As you said earlier, Xenos, the demon lords had a chance meeting in the lower realms. And Nathalie already knew about the meeting, even before the meeting started. So he had cast his magic first in the meeting room, making anyone in the room exposed to the magic of the woman," continued Zeena with the possibility he thought.

"However, who exactly is the woman behind all this, and what is the woman's true purpose?" muttered Xenos and Zeena who somehow could be together.

Now that the master and the magi were looking at each other, their faces looked like they were thinking hard. There are too many puzzles and problems that they have to solve.

"Xenos ..." - Zeena was accompanied by the action of turning her face, "Huh?" Xenos looked towards the hand of Zeena who was holding her stomach.

"A–aku hungry! Can't you feed me first before you tell me to think hard?" With her face clear, and also looking a little annoyed, Zeena spoke while looking at Xenos sharply.

The Magical Animal immediately turned its face away. "Nobody told you to think hard in the first place, you wanted it yourself!" reply Xenos who did not accept the blame.

"Here you go, let's follow me deeper into this cave. There are so many delicious foods waiting for you in there," continued the manticore, then he walked deeper into the cave, followed by Zeena behind him.

Along the way, Zeena really felt like she was taking a walk in the night sky, with a sprinkling of stars decorating her.

......................

On a fairly long dining table, Zeena and Xenos devised their strategy to solve the current problem. Issues concerning the continued existence of Zeena in Vasileio Daimon.

Of course, they do this after both of them feel full.

Zeena and Xenos sat opposite, with some chess pieces in front of them.

"If we want to do everything easily, then the first thing we both have to do, is to get the demon lords back on our side, which is in the same way that Nathalie did." Zeena began her discussion of their strategy.

The woman moved the white horse pawn, to escort the black king piece to a single point. Zeena smiled slightly. Then he turned the king's five black chess pieces into white with his magic.

"You Xenos, do something so that the five demon lords can regroup in the same place. Choose the place first, then I will look for a spell that can restore them to their original state, and cast the spell in the designated place," continued Zeena.

Xenos nodded his head, "Then after the five demon lords have returned to side with us, we will find out who Nathalie is working for, uncovering what their plans and goals are. Then catch Nathalie, as well as the mastermind of all these problems. They won't let me get away!" connect Xenos.

The ferocious manticore moved the white horse that Zeena had previously moved, then with the help of the white minister's pawn, she cornered the two black king pieces.

"Supervise!"
