In the far north stood a majestic castle solely made up of ice. An unimaginable amount of magicules is needed to build the castle but such a thing is nothing in the eyes of the maiden who is seating at the top of the castle while listening to the conservation between his partner Demon Lord Guy and his partner interest Demon Lord Leon.

She is still not sure if he is interested in Leon or not. Not like it matters to her.

"So, why did you call me here?"

"Did you hear about the upcoming Walpurgis? I was planning to force you to attend the Walpurgis"

"It sure is rare for you to force anything upon me like that. The reason being?"

Hearing them talking about their 'Demon Lord' meeting she quickly lost interest in their conservation. This matter doesn't concern her after all.

"Cautious as always aren't you? Fine. I will explain. The proponent of this time is Clayman"

"The little one"

Guy explained to Leon with a smile as he sips the tea.

"But oddly enough, Milim's name was on the list of endorsers. Milim is one of the most powerful and oldest Demon Lords like me. She wouldn't lift a finger for the likes of Clayman. Which means..."

"The report that Carrion is dead might be fake."

Leon understands things fast as he thinks about them a little. But why did she do that? A mystery for now.

"Oh, you know, don't you? Clayman overstepped his boundaries. He tried to harass me without leaving any evidence behind. I won't let him pass this time."

"Setting Carrion's case aside, if Milim is taking action then it's bad news."

Guy was not happy after hearing her name. She always causes trouble for him and he even remembers her last visit.

"This might be just another game for Milim, but I don't want anyone, tipping the balance of power among the Demon Lords. It will just give me more work."

"Do you think Milim is being controlled by Clayman?"

"A genius like me can't understand a moron like her. You can consider it one of a few of my weaknesses."

"I will participate in the meeting. I'm also interested in meeting this new Demon Lord Rimuru."

The name Rimuru perks the interest of not only Guy but also Velzard.

Her eyes widened even only at the mention of his name. Strange feelings started to rise inside her always-calm heart. Anger, sadness, happiness. Just by mentioning a simple name Leon unknowingly set a storm of emotion inside Velzard's heart.

Unknowingly to herself, she clenched her hand tightly into a fist. As she started to listen to their conservation carefully.

"Do you know anything about this guy named Rimuru?"

"The way Clayman puts it, he's just a self-proclaimed Demon Lord. But if he has the strength to back it up, I have no problem with it"

She didn't like what she heard from Leon. She didn't have any interest in Demon Lord let alone in self-proclaimed Demon Lord. But for some reason, she felt unpleasant when she heard the word self-proclaimed.

"I hope I will never meet you in the future. My face will only bring terrible memories to you...

I know you didn't want to hear my voice but I just want to say thank you...

Thank you for being with me to this day. You are the only girl who fluttered my cold heart...

Please forget that I even exist...
