Contract
As we were making a noise outside the restroom, Amaimon appeared from the men's restroom after cleaning.
"Isn't it, Cedric-kun!
You came today with your friends!
Father is very happy!"
Amaimon wears flashy 80's Italian fashion as always.
A purple double-breasted suit and a bright red shirt.
He was wearing an eye-catching tie with an unusual pattern and color.
"Are you cleaning the toilet dressed like that?"
Mary was so shocked that she couldn't help but thrust in.
"I'm wearing an apron so I don't get dirty, so it's okay!"
"No, that's not what I mean!"
Ever since Mary came to the southern continent, she's been a pain.
"So, Cedric-kun! What did you come here for today?"
Amaimon asks.
"Ah. Are you acquainted with Mephistopheles and the Pied Piper of Hamelin, who is a devil from another world called the Black Death?"
It's a pain in the ass, so I just ask what I want to know.
"I know Mephisto Pheles, but I don’t know the Pied Piper of Hamelin!
So, what's with those two!?"
Amaimon's pressure is amazing.
He's probably excited because I'm relying on him, even though I usually avoid him.
"They appeared on the 35th level!"
"That's tough! Mephisto is lower than me, but...
The Black Death, the Pied Piper of Hamelin, is not a fallen angel-type high-ranking devil, but a naturally occurring substandard devil, and he also consumes many human souls, so I think he is extremely strong!"
Amaimon taught me a bit about the Black Death.
"Even Amaimon can't do anything about it!?"
"If I put my mind to it, something might work out, but Cedric-kun, are you trying to rely on me?"
"Yes! Subjugating devils from another world is too difficult for us to handle!
If you know Mephisto, please ask him to back off somehow!"
I ask strongly.
Unlike Shiro, I don't rely on him at all on a daily basis, so I'm sure he will listen to my requests once in a while.
"That’s impossible! There is a law of non-interference between devils from Earth who have come to a different world that is not Earth!
In fact, even on the southern continent, the princess is at war with Beelzebub's faction, but we, the group of otherworldly devils who are on the princess's side, are not directly participating in the battle!"
An unexpected answer.
"Father! Won't you even listen to my request?"
Shiro looked at Amaimon's face sadly.
"It's a rule, so there's nothing I can do about it. Besides, Mephisto is under Beelzebub, so I don't think he'll listen to my request..."
"In that case, we'll have no choice but to ask Britney and the others for help."
I change my mind.
There's no need to rely on Amaimon.
If someone of Amaimon's level can help me, that's fine.
However, I just wanted to resolve the issue peacefully.
"That's no good either! People from the southern continent are under a contract not to interfere in the disputes on the 35th level!"
"Eh? What do you mean?"
"The connection between the Amru dungeon and the other world on the 35th level is irregular.
At first, I didn't notice it at all, but before I knew it, Anastasia was using me!
And then, a long time ago, [Dog's Paw], Red Dragon Arietta, and Great Sage Moccolina, who happened to discover the entrance to Amru Dungeon, reached the 35th floor and rescued Anastasia!"
"I know there was a story like that!
It wouldn't be a problem to use people from the southern continent like that time!"
I strongly protest against Amaimon.
"That's a big deal! At that time, the strongest person on the southern continent appeared in another world, where four people were at a lower level all at once!
The Great Demon King who appeared on the 35th level was instantly killed!
And then, as expected, after the problems on the southern continent and the problems on the 35th level were over, the heroic leader of [Dog's Paw] and the red dragon Arietta settled in the Amru dungeon!"
"I... I see..."
I couldn't help but be frightened by the unfamiliar development of the story and the intensity of Amaimon's pressure.
"I had a hard time getting rid of those two!
They're too strong, and using force won't work!"
Amaimon's eyes are teary-eyed as he remembers that time.
"So, what happened?"
"In the end, I managed to get them to leave, and I made a deal with Anastasia that she wouldn't use the residents of the southern continent in the future!
Of course, hiding the entrance to prevent adventurers from wandering into the Amru dungeon!"
Amaimon grins and winks.
"The entrance to the Amru Dungeon can only be opened by Amaimon, and it's located in the Mofuufu Royal Palace's toilet cleaning tool storage area..."
I finally found out the mystery of why the entrance to the Amru dungeon is where toilet cleaning tools are kept.
I thought it was because it was close to the workplace of Amaimon, the toilet cleaner at Mofuufu Royal Palace.
"In the Mofuufu Royal Palace, the mana of various strong people is jumbled together, so the entrance to the Amru Dungeon will never be discovered!"
"Then, isn’t it a problem for us to help the 35th level?"
I had doubts, so I asked Amaimon.
"That's no problem! I made a deal with Anastasia that in exchange for not using the residents of the southern continent, she can freely use the children born in the Amru dungeon!"
"What's that!"
"For Anastasia, when the Demon King of the 35th level who is too much to handle appears, she can use the children born in the Amru Dungeon as help, and personally, she can train the children in the Amru Dungeon at my place, so it’s completely a win-win contract!"
I don't really understand, but Amaimon winked at me again.
The devil race loves contracts.
Don't keep your promises like the devil is the embodiment of evil!
I wouldn't say that at all, like that creepy devil who winks at me.
"I see… Anastasia-san had a cooperative relationship with Father… In that case, I have to be serious too!"
Shiro says the unexpected words.
"You weren't serious even though I died so many times!"
"Since this was a case brought to me by Anastasia-san, I had no interest in it at all!"
"That’s why!"
"But now that I know that Father and Anastasia-san are working together, it’s a different story!
As Father's daughter, I can't let Father be a liar!"
After saying that, Shiro, the father-con, opened her fourth divine eye! The eye widened.
