After the short discussion between the Demon Lord and the Diplomats about the Defense Treaty between the Five Great Rulers of the Great forest, The Diplomats left the Demon Lord Office and walked towards the designated rooms. They decided to stay in the Fortress Bastion to observe more about the Nation of Azathoth and its Inquisition. After all, they had little to no information about such a Nation and Organization. It was understandable for them to stay in the Fortress Bastion.
Persia didn't mind them that much. It was also an excellent chance to release good rumors about the Demon Nation. Persia needed to make the Fortress Bastion as welcoming and scary as possible. Such two words are hard to combine, but with Persia's great strength and capabilities. There was nothing impossible within her mind.
Anyway, One day had passed since the Diplomats left the Demon Lord's Office. It was time for them to start their observation within the Fortress Bastion.
*Beep!!!* *Beep!!!* *Beep!!!*
*Beep!!!* *Beep!!!* *Beep!!!*
An Alarm echoed within a luxurious room deep within the Fortress Bastion. On the Bed was a Beautiful Beast Lady with Pitch-Black Hair and Tail. She was quite a beauty, especially when she was sleeping. Though unfortunately, the Alarm Clock echoed, signifying the start of a new day.
Aurora's body found itself covered by a white blanket though it began budging after hearing the noisy alarms. It was the sign of Aurora waking up. It took a while, but seconds later. Aurora opened her eyelids which revealed her Silver-colored Eyes. She found herself staring at a clean and metallic ceiling as memories of what happened yesterday began flooding into her mind.
'Shit!!!'
Aurora rose from her bed as she started looking around. She exited her bed and walked into the bathroom without any questions. After waking up from her slumber, Aurora immediately realized that she was still within the Fortress Bastion and she had a job to do. After all, it was time for the Diplomats to start their observation under the Demon Lord's orders. It seems that the Demon Lord wanted to take the rumors of Demons being crazy wild beasts into the drain.
Aurora took a bath as she felt relaxed while cleansing her body of filth. After observing the things she had seen while heading towards the Throne Room, Aurora was sure that the Nation of Azathoth was high in terms of Social and Technological Power. Most would have expected the newly resurrected Demons to be in a feudal age, but it seems that they were wrong.
The fantasy of the Demon Race found itself stuck in most of the Inhabitants of the Great Forest Minds. It was something most would have expected. After all, most information about Demons came from scriptures. The Dangerous and Crazy Daemon Monsters would infect others to become crazy as them. Most wouldn't want such beings to be their neighbors.
Within the bathroom, Aurora looked at herself while brushing her teeth. While delivering the Defense Treaty was her mission, it was simply one of the many. The Great Beast Ruler ordered her to observe the Nation of Azathoth and take a video of it. Why? It was because of some political bastards who hated having Demons as their neighbors.
-The Dangers of the Demon Race and the Power of its Great Ruler was a threat to the Security of the Great Forest- Such were the bastards' words. Despite having most of the Great Rulers on the Demon Lord's side, Some representatives within their nations wouldn't accept the coexistence between the Demons and the Inhabitants of the Great Forest. They believed that the Demons would gobble them up, and a preemptive strike was needed.
'In each nation, there would always be idiots. I am sure they are gathering their armies to try attacking the Demons. Fortunately, the Nation of Azathoth doesn't have a wide scope of influence within the Region. They might have noticed it, but they wouldn't take it as a problem. After all, the Rogue Armies normally wouldn't last that long.' Aurora thought to herself while brushing her teeth.
'Though, the problem here is severe. Reports about Elven, Dwarven, and Beastfolk Rogue Armies are getting heard all over the Governments of their respective nations. The political spectrum within the Governments got divided into the Great Ruler's side and the opposing side. Of course, the divide was unneeded. After all, the Great Ruler could wipe them out from existence, and no one would bother about it.' Aurora shook her head as she finished brushing her teeth.
"But, the Great Rulers are people beyond normalcy. After living long lives, they seek entertainment. A Normal Ruler would actively annihilate the opposing side before it could grow, but Great Rulers would make the opposing side grow and squash it. Quite sadistic, but it was something to expect from the Great Rulers." Aurora nonchalantly uttered as she exited the bathroom.
As Aurora exited the bathroom, she walked towards the dryer. She needed to dry her hair and her tail. Having them wet was annoying in all situations, so it became a habit for the Beastfolk and Aurora to dry their hair no matter what. After drying her hair, Aurora walked towards the wardrobe and wore her new clothes for the day.
'That took time...' Aurora thought to herself as she looked at her room. She released a smile as she opened the door and exited her room. She then found herself in a metallic and futuristic hallway. Before entering her room yesterday, Luna told Aurora where the cafeteria of the Inquisition resided. It was a Useful piece of information as Aurora might have gotten lost without it.
She then looked in a Certain direction of the hallway and walked towards it. Aurora's steps echoed within the metallic hallway as it took time for her to arrive at the door leading to the cafeteria. She could see a simple wooden sign with the spoken name. She smiled as it was strange for such to exist in the futuristic theme of the Fortress.
While standing in front of the metallic door leading to the cafeteria, Aurora felt the auras of the Diplomats she had met yesterday. She turned her head towards the direction of the spoken feeling and saw her fellow Diplomats. "It has been a while. Did the two of you have a good sleep?"
Aurora uttered with a calm voice. Malgon and Sella sighed as they also immediately woke up after the realization of being within the Fortress Bastion. They already had the permission of their respective Great Rulers to stay within the Fortress Bastion. The Great Rulers agreed as they had no reason to disagree with the Diplomats' choices as it made their True missions a lot easier.
"That was the first time I had a good sleep though waking up wasn't a good feeling." Sella sighed and shook her head. Aurora could feel Sella getting disgruntled early in the morning. She might have a good sleep if her reaction to waking up was the disgruntling persona. Well, Aurora didn't care that much about it.
Malgon then smiled as he also replied. "I could say the same. I should stop being a general and become a Diplomat." Malgon started chuckling as Sella and Aurora also slightly chuckled. Being a Diplomat wasn't that bad. The only downside was the possibility of meeting Dangerous Great Rulers. Though, they were confident that their Great Rulers would protect them when the time arrived.
"I'm hungry. let's eat." Sella felt her grumbling stomach. Aurora and Malgon nodded in agreement as the Giant Metallic Door in front of them slid open. As it slid open, the Diplomats could finally see the cafeteria of the Inquisition, along with it was a Strong pressure of all the Demons in Azathoth. The Diplomats finally saw all of the Inquisitors.
The Inquisitors that were peacefully eating in the cafeteria stopped in their tracks. They turn their gazes towards the new guest. The Diplomats could feel a lot of stares coming from the Inquisitors. They didn't sense hostility though they did sense curiosity. It seems that the Inquisitors were curious about the Diplomats of the Great Forest.
The Diplomats and the Demons of Azathoth started staring at each other. Marx stood up and spoke towards the Diplomats with an aloof voice. "Fellow Visitors, Why don't you take a seat?" The Diplomats looked at Max as if she was their savior. They then nodded and accepted Marx's invitation.
As the Diplomats walked through the cafeteria, they felt the piercing stares of the Demons. Arriving in front of Marx's table, they could see no one other than Marx herself. Marx smiled towards them and signaled the Diplomats to sit down. The Diplomats sat down as Marx looked at them with a sly smile. She was rather curious about the Diplomats, and the situation in front of her was the best one.
'So this is the Azathoth Army. Despite their low numbers, All of them are Monsters.' Aurora thought to herself while sneaking a glance at the Demons within the cafeteria.. She could feel monstrous auras exuding from the Demon's bodies.
